Mac Pro and setup

Hello everybody and welcome to a new post!

As I mentioned in the previous post, I am going to buy a Mac Pro 1.1in December or January, but its not going to be a 2006 Mac Pro. I've got my eye on a 2008 Mac Pro 8 Core because this model of Mac Pro is still supported by Apple and can run OS X Yosemite without any modding. That's one of the reasons why I'm going to buy this Mac Pro, but I also want and need a lot of power because the end of my high school days are coming to an end, and that means that I'm going to start my next study which has everything to do with graphics design. One of the reasons that I choose this school above all the others is that they're using Mac. They even say on their website that its recommended to buy a Mac instead of a pc, but you can still buy a pc if you want to because those are generally cheaper.

I have a lot of plans for this Mac Pro, like upgrading the RAM to 16 GB and upgrading the graphics card, so it has enough power to edit video's and using Photoshop without to much of a hassle. Newer than a 2008 Mac Pro is probably to expensive still, but we'll see, maybe I'll find a nice deal on eBay or something.

My setup is going to change drastically when I purchased the Mac Pro because I'm also going to get a new desk and a 24 inch Apple LED Cinema Display, wired Apple keyboard and the Apple Magic Mouse. Because when I turn 16 I can work a lot, and that way I can earn money. I'm 15 right now and I'm already applying for jobs to fund my needs, and that's also the reason why I am able to have more money to spend on my computer and thinking back it was actually really stupid to even think to buy a 2006 Mac Pro. Yes they're still generally powerful, yes they're really reliable but one of the biggest reasons of me buying a Mac Pro is the capability of using the newest operating system to use the latest applications. And buying a 2006 Mac Pro doesn't make sense. Yes its more powerful than my MacBook, but it also isn't supported like my MacBook so yeah.. Mac Pro 2008 8 core it is.

I'm am building a pc by the way, not for myself but for my brother, so I won't lose any money but I think its fun to write about the specs and my first real pc build in another post. But apart from that I'm really look forward to owning a Mac Pro and I'm not going to spend any money on tech until the Mac Pro. So with this all said I think its time to end this post, so thanks for reading and until the next one.
