"but that machine is NOT the same level of design or engineering or build construction as a Mac Pro or a Z series machine"

I'm not a design guy when it comes to my computer. First, I rarely see it, second if it makes the same color of money, it's fine by me.

All I want to do is make the maximum amount of money for the minimum amount of $$ output. I know this machine will do it. If I'm wrong..... I'll order a Z class, just to make you happy OK?

I've built my own PC's between 1994 and 2000. I've maintained PC's since 1994. This machine with the upgrades I have ordered will handle the job as well as anything. You're comment about firewire, and the constant talk about Thunderbolt - is anyone around here remember how powerful FW1600 and FW3200 was going to be? What, they never made them!!! How about Fibre Channel. Apple swore by it, developed $12K raids - of which I owned one - now they no longer support it.

The industry has adopted USB3 and ESATA. It is still on the fence regarding Thunderbolt. Way easier to install a couple of drives and create a RAID, than using external drives. I'm coming from a standpoint of using SCSI, and buying my first 2 X 2GB drives for over $4K.

Anyway, I'm done on this thread. Keep arguing if you guys like. See you all in the Premiere forum sometime.
