My MacPro is here! :D

Oct. 14, 2006 - my MacPro arrived. Took me almost 6 hours to get everything copied over to it from my PC and update/install things but now its done and its mighty sweet. Ive yet to install bootcamp on it but the firmware update is in so I think the SATA issue wont be a problem. I'm kinda shocked how long it takes this thing to boot. Alot longer then I expected but it shines when in full swing in OSX. Exporting something in H264 is an absolute joy and I have many things to convert to QT. I'm very satisfied with my decision, and im loving my X1900XT Thank you Bank for the loan, thank you Apple for the product, and thank you Macrumors for getting all my pre-purchasing questions out of the way.

Mine doesn't take very long to boot (into OS X). Windows takes a while to fire up but OS X loads very quickly.
I'm glad you're liking your new Mac!!

Terrible Photo but here you go:

Ill be sure to show my others later.

On the whole order thing it was an absolute nightmare. I got the X1900XT so it took like 5 days to ship or more. Took about 6 days to arrive, but previously i had made my order but they cancelled it because my returning iMac 24in wasn't credited back to my account yet. All in all its been almost a month since i first purchased my iMac, returned it, ordered a MacPro, it was cancelled, then finally made my current purchase which arrived yesterday. I basically sat and almost died of excitement for a month. Its here now though so im happy Its all good.

Mine boots incredibly quickly... have you installed a lot of PowerPC applications that run at startup?
