sure... but that's kinda like entering a baby and grade schooler in a tattoo show by boomer bikers!🤣
Heh, love the metaphor, but worry not, I can come in. Thankfully, I'm no grade schooler
. Still in the club. My 5,1 is laying around here somewhere...I'm preserving it now. 🤪
After years of tinkering, this is where I am today. I'm pretty much maxed out, though I could still update some of my storage. I would love to add a Highpoint 7101A. I'm pretty proud of my machine, it is a workhorse and serves me well every day.
Great logo, I triend to find it via google but no luck.
Any chance you could share it pls ?
My 4,1 now a 5,1. Still running High Sierra because Nvidia. Used every single day for my work in Cinema 4D, Photoshop , After Effects, Zbrush, and some general graphic design work. Pretty sure this is the longest I've owned a single piece of tech, bought in 2009 and still my workhorse.

Here is my InDesign/Photoshop/Illustrator beast. No high-end upgrades, but fulfills the purpose.

Here's my work machine. Handles 4K video in FCP X like it's nothing. Now to find a dual tray that doesn't cost more than the whole machine. Mine is also loaded down with HDDs, SSDs, an NVME and mSATA card, a bluetooth and wifi upgrade, a Blu-Ray burner, and a USB 3.0 PCIe card.
Works fine , has a bunch of storage . Boot drive = 1 Tb Intel 660 on Cryo M2 card ; 2Tb Time Machine ; 256Gb Boot Camp (Win 7) ; 2Tb Image Storage ; 1Tb Documents ; 3Tb Archive { backup of Images and Documents ) ; 4Tb WD external shared w/ Hp z2 (backup of Archive)
