Re: The Fog Thickens

[Jeremy Garchow] "Just curious, but have you even tired plugging in a thunderbolt raid (to an iMac/laptop) and doing a 5 cam multicam? How do you know what dream is possible?"

Since these new TBolt expansion chassis were just announced in the past few days, I would have to say no to that.

In general the idea of using an Imac with Tbolt connectors is not very appealing. I'm trying to maximize my bandwidth; I want to maximize my ram and my GPU possibilities, I want PCIe 3 type speeds - how does that fit in with the idea of an Imac and Tbolt xpansion.

However, if someone can show me that I can get the speed I want with all the peripherals I need with Tbolt Imacs I will definitely give it a look. My preference now is to buy a Mac, I'm desperate to give them a lot of my money, but they have to give me something reliable and expandable that meets my needs. I'm open to any possibility that works. But I absolutely have to make a decision by June 1 - If I know that what I want is coming a few months later I can work around it, but if it's all still a dream at that point then I'm jumping ship.
