what is the advantage and disadvantage
of buying a mac-pro

anyone can tell me please?
thanks a lot friends!

Totally depends on what software you want to run. Although, you can dual boot to windows on a mac now. So, what it mainly comes down to two things IMHO:
1. Do you want to run software that is only available on a mac?
2. What's your budget? A good mac is expensive.

The way I look at it... Macs are for people that don't want to dick around. "It just works". You pay for that luxury though. PCs give you a lot more options software-wise, but aren't as stable IMO. They're obviously cheaper too.

I use a PC, because thats what all my software needs. If I was buying NEW... right now... I would probably buy a Mac, due to the recent price drop on Logic 8.

I want to run logic on the mac..
logic sound better than cubase..

the mixdown on logic or cubase is different mixdown!
but mac is so expensive

i'm ask myself if it worth the money

what do you thinks friends??

mac pro 5000-6000$ (without logic) logic=1200$
SUPER PC=1500$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sounds like you have already made up your mind.

That's totally up to you dude. We all have a different financial situation, so no one can really answer that question for you.

I'm going to assume that there is some type of currency conversion there and that that price is not in USD because you can get a Mac Pro that has absolutely everything you need for music production for under $3K. Plus logic pro 8 is only $500.

I guess if you buy a Mac then you are more likely to be pr0.

There is no such thing as "audio engine" it's a marketing term.

well audio engine is the bus summing in the mathematical way. so no 32 bit support is a feature-lack of an outdated audio engine..

Even FL has had that shit for years.
