[quote vision63]Institutional customers yes. Do you know an individual? Again, has anyone "here" purchased one?.
Yes, as of yesterday, nine friends of mine have purchased MacPro's.
Greg the Dog Sitter has one.
This board is really not the litmus test for those types of purchases. Not many big spenders here.
You need to go to forums where lots of audio/video, and rendering is done. Also, Adobe is sitting on its ass, and hasn't UniBinned its applications yet, so most photoshop folks aren't buying yet. If you need the power, you pay the price. I have seen video render times drop from hours, to minutes, the price is well worth it, if your apps will use it. Is the price hurting your business? Can you even make a case for what your using now, or are you just complaining?
What are you using now?
What are you doing with it?
