Hi guys.

Tommorow morning I'm getting a Mac Pro, I would of liked to get it today but got caught up in fourth celebrations. I will go at about 12 Central, so about6pm for you guys. I'll take some pictures and upload them to here at about 8, I'll probably record the unboxing and setup. :)

I'm excited.

Is there anything extra you think I should know past what you expect from someone who's been researching for the last 2 months?

Nice, I can't wait to see some pictures or even the videos if you do record. I have nothing else to say just enjoy that machine and enjoy the Leopard experience.

You can't afford an iMac or MacBook let alone a Mac Pro.

Thanks guys. Sorry it took so long the first one was 12 seconds over 10 and was rejected. I moved to America with my family (My dad is American). But yes I am *british*, I prefer *English*. :)

Thanks! I love it right now. My Dad and I are going to sort out electrics in my room and get my on three main circuits for my new monitors when they arrive, I'll do unboxing with these and more ram and hds and graphics cards as they come! :)

Edit, initial reviews going up soon. :)


edit omg - I just opened the entire creative suite and as many apps as I can, iStat says 12% cpu load. Ram is bottlenecking me. I'm going to order some more soon.
