    Back to considering getting a standalone computer for music recording. Still using an early 2011 MBP, pre-Retina screen as my main computer, it's nice and fast, 1TB drive, 16MB Ram.

    I've got the 27" Thunderbolt monitor, and I can't decide whether I'd rather buy a new iMac, or a refurb Mac Pro. I want/need a computer for recording that's always connected and ready to go rather than connecting, disconnecting my MBP, taking it down to the basement, etc.

    Someone suggested selling my 27" monitor and putting that towards an iMac. I don't know if I'd switch to the iMac for most of my photo editing and design work, but I'm sure the newer iMac screen would be a great update to what I currently have.

    Any suggestions?

    • mac pro's cool but its slow as shit compared to what you can get with a pc or hackintosh build, I have the mac pro trash can and work in VR and it suuuuucks.moldero
