Re: iMac or Mac Pro?

2008-10-18 by healingtouch58

Hey Mike.

I just bought a refurbished imac with 2.4 GHz, 250 Gig hard drive and
maxed out the RAM to 4 Gigs. I use it for my Logic Studio LP 8
With the 4 Gigs I payed about $1300 for the whole deal, and my imac
works great...
I too had gone to my local Apple store and the bright fellow told me I
would have no problems if I bought the Mac Pro, but would have
difficulties if I went with anything less..but $4000 was not in my
budget..
I am totally happy with my imac...
If you need to know anymore just email me..
best of luck
Jack
