MP 7,1 Best placement for Mac Pro 2019?

[thomasjans]

Hi, do you think that putting the Mac Pro on the floor is a good idea when you have a dog? I don't see any filter and am afraid the short hairs will get inside the Mac.

I don't think hair will get through. Unless you have a really hairy/dirty floor and if that is the case then you should put it on a desk, on your lap, or on any elevated platform that will make you comfortable doing your work with it.

Does your dog have fur or hair? (Serious question.)

I'm intrigued in the answer to this. Mainly as I run my own business as a dog photographer. So although the only dog in my office where the Mac Pro will be is my spaniel, there's often a lot of dog fur floating around the place, even though we hoover daily.

Part of me just wants to put the Mac Pro on the desk because it's such a beautiful piece of kit and I'll appreciate it more up there.

So mine is on the floor. I remember laughing when I saw the design. And thinking that thing is gonna clog with dust. I just yesterday had to go down to get a cable. And the dust on the internal grill was so so thick. Incredibly. Not sure it it highlights poor design or it’s good because it trapped it.

On a $40, height adjustable stand with locking wheels. Fits my MP perfectly.

We have an office cat (Maine Coon). I checked the outside of the grill and it looks a mess of dust and fur. This weekend, I'll try to clean it. Maybe take a few pics and post. Hate to have the machine down for any length of time though.

Sorry - but I've never understood the structure of these forums - I wish that it would display as a tree so that who replied to what is apparent.

We have two Maine Coons - and the fur generation is amazing.

We have a whole house fan with the air intake grille 4m off the ground (cathedral ceiling in the great room). Every two or three months we need to get the stepladder and vacuum off the mat of cat fur on the grille.
