Finally got a Mac pro after returning my imac. It's a 2.6 gig intel xeon processor, 2 gig of ram, 250 gig hdd, and a 30 inch cinema display. I decided to order all my software today as well. It will be here tomorrow. I ordered every pro app they had, Logic pro 7 with a keyboard, final cut studio, shake, another internal hdd (500 gig) isight camera, (on backorder). I can't wait till tomorrow. God I love student discounts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On another subject, does anyone know how the jam packs work? Are they music plug ins for garageband and apeture so I can add more instraments to it?? What are they exactly? If anyone knows let me know.

They are extra sounds and stuff. aperture is a photo program,so garageband jam packs dont work with it....

If you want some good plugs for Logic, just get the Waves Native Power Pack. Best $335 you'll spend on an addition to you audio application.
