My old Mac Pro is on its last legs. It's quite old by computer standards. I believe from 2007.
I had a few upgrades done to it through the years...but the nice folks at Apple made it near obsolete, as its highest OS X system is Lion 10.7.4. It's not capable of having either Mavericks or Yosemite installed.
My Illustrator and Photoshop barely open now.
So...my question...
Any of you have a Mac Mini? What you think of it? You think it's good for Illustrator and Photoshop?
Not interested in anything other than a Mac. However, I don't want an iMac, MacBook,MacBook Pro, MacAir either. And forget the new MacPro...those suckers cost almost as much as a car, lol.
I have an iPad Air, love it to death, but that's my browser buddy, my GPS, the take anywhere internet tablet with AT&T G4 service...but it's not built/designed for Illustrator or Photoshop.
I hear Apple made the latest 2014 Mac Mini model only dual core. That the quad core 2012 is actually the faster and superior computer. The new one is also closed shut, you can't open it to add additional hardware. Plus no DVD drive, although an external would solved that problem.
My main interest is a late (October) 2012 Mc Mini Quad 8GB (minimum)...
I want to utilize my Apple Cinema Display monitor, wireless keyboard, and wireless mouse with the Mini...it just makes $ense.
Please, no Apple vs PC wars here...both are cool, it's just my preference...been an Apple user all my life...no hate for PC's, it's like my car/truck preferences...I'm not a Chevy man, it's a good company...but I bleed Ford blue, lol.
Thanks...
