[QUOTE="kmcghee, post: 1484149, member: 288896"] Thanks for the reply. I will check but I think we have 64 bit support, and the new software does for sure. The computer is just for drawing and creating the tool paths into a G-Code, the mill itself has its own dedicated software on the machine at work, I just want to draw stuff at home that's all. I will run Mactracker when I get home and see what it says. That being said I noticed something very interesting about the memory. It shows that the early 2009 use a processor tray to house the Ram. Mine are attached to two trays you remove. So that according to the instructions makes it an Early 2008, Mac pro 8 Core, or Mac pro original but according to Canada Ram (link above) anything from Jan 2008 on would have a Penryn processor, I have a Xenon. So either that or I got screwed and ordered a Mac Pro in January 2009 and was given a 2007 mac which makes me very ****** off. I hope Mac Tracker can figure this one out or Canada Ram is wrong.
