My new pet project

I sold my original c2d white 20" imac and used the money to get a second hand well kept Mac pro 3,1
I just put in 8gb ram today and will be putting in a ati 4870 card next week
the geekbench score is 11250.
I just need the video card so I can utilize its power of the card for FCP etc

wow man. congrats on saving so hard for the machine! im sure that it wont let you down :D

Thanks for the kind spirit. Finally figured out how to Erase & Install from scratch. Still looking for themes that work in SL. Tomorrow its VMWare trial with Win7 to get files off external WD Passport.

@MacGeek18, I noticed that you have uMB_Poly as well. Essentially the same machines - you get the better battery life. Oh yeah MagicMouse, Novation KeyPad, spare battery, mstand+keyboard is first week of April. 3rd week is MacMini 9400M for the family.
