[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1029070, member: 56379"] Wow...that is ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!!:) Apple never fails to impress me. I was hoping for you that such an odd hardware failure would encourage Apple to do the right thing...and they did!:):):) Tough call on which one to take. If there was such a thing as "official" processor upgrades for Mac Pro's (like the Powermac G3's & G4's used to have) then I would definitely say get the Mac Pro. But to be honest (I have a Mac Pro)...and the lack of "official" processor upgrades for Mac Pro's is a little "weird"...considering desktops are supposed to be VERY expandable. In some ways (because of no official processor upgrades) Mac Pros are no better than iMacs. Of course you can put a boat-load of hard drives & ram into a Mac Pro...as well as run 8 monitors simultaneously...but it would be nice to have a processor upgrade path as well. That 27" monitor on the iMacs is pretty darn neat...and that would be the BIG "go..no go" decision for me! Good luck with what you decide, - Nick [/QUOTE]
