[QUOTE="markusaurileus, post: 1538086, member: 290099"] Thanks for sharing your experiences with the Mac Pro 1,1 guys. I hadn't thought about the upgrade pricing, nor the bus speed limitations. Guess it slipped my mind. I am still really leaning towards the 2010 model, but I am still trying to figure out if my desire to have a mac pro is worth fulfilling. It's often crossed my mind for the last year. My next step is to benchmark my PC and compare it to the 5,1 both with OSX and Win 7. Do you guys know what's a good cross-platform benchmark to try out? Only one I know of is geekbench. Well no but maybe haha ;D I enjoy having a neat, clean computer build, and when's the last time an internally beautiful computer was successfully marketed? To me, the pro looks like a modern classic of the conventional desktop. [/QUOTE]
