[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1783510, member: 42497"] The Mac Pro 1.1 is a 2006 model with 2GHz or 2.66GHs CPU's. The 2.1 is a 2007 model with 3GHz CPU's. Make sure you get the 2008 model with the 2.8GHz CPU's. The first two are severely hamstrung by having 32bit EFI and natively can only run up to Lion OS X.7. Remember both 2008 machines are old with pretty slow memory and graphics. Personbally I don't think any ten year old computer is an 'upgrade' but economics rule. [/QUOTE]
