Newbie Question: retiring my old MacPro... what should I buy to replace it?
I use LR 5.7. It suits my needs. Love it.
I own a Canon 5d mk 3 and shoot in RAW
I own a Sony... shoot in their version of RAW called ARW.... my ancient mac pro from 2009 is not upgradeable to modern OS (running 10.9.5) so it doesn't open ARW files. Its big and ugly and I think its time to retire it.
I like the idea of separate monitor and computer so i don't want an I-Mac
should I invest in a present day mac pro?
wait until the new one comes out and buy a leftover version of the present model at a discount?
will mac mini do what i need to do? (Handle RAW and ARW files in LR 5.7... i don't do video and i don't do gaming or anything involving 3D modeling)
