Hi Everyone,
I'm a little confused as to what to purchase...
I received a MacPro from work, specifically, this one: Mac Pro "Quad Core" 2.66 (Original) Specs (Mac Pro, MA356LL/A, MacPro1,1*, A1186, 2180) @ EveryMac.com
However, for security reasons, they removed the hard drive and the memory. I've gone ahead and purchased a new hard drive and some memory, however I need to purchase an OS as well.
I called the Apple Store near my house and was told thatthey sell the full version of Snow Leopard for $199.
I've also read that you can buy the $29 upgrade version and that it still works as a full version.
If I buy the $29 upgrade, do you think it would work on a new hard drive, with no prior OS installed on it?
Thanks for your help!
