I'm graduating college in a month. We use Vegas pro here, and It's not really used in the professional world. I want to start working on a mac so I can use Final cut pro and Avid. My only problem is that I'm not sure which product is better. I'm looking to buy a refurbished IMac or Mac pro. Can someone help me, please?
