[QUOTE="Zigrivers, post: 998291, member: 131112"] Hi guys, I wanted to get some advice from this group about making the jump to a Mac. I'm so sick of the strange, intermittent problems I get with my PC! Anyway, I noticed that it's been almost a year since the Mac Pro has had an update. I would like to make the jump to a Mac Pro, but I don't want to buy one now, if Apple is going to update them in a month or two. Does anyone know if there will be an update to the Mac Pro in the near future? If I did make the jump now, what are my options when it comes to upgrading the system in the future? I assume I can upgrade the RAM, but what about the CPU? And can I do these upgrades myself? I've built my own PCs for more than 10 years, so I'm comfortable doing this kind of stuff. Lastly, considering my current system, would you guys recommend the Quad-core or the 8-core? Thanks for any insight or advice! [/QUOTE]
