    Super! Just in time for end-of-year budgeting considerations.

    Pricing helps realize that the HP z8 series isn’t over-priced. And I’ll opt for the better expandability over the 5K monitor.

    But yes, for FCX, it seems to be a good machine.

    Saw one running fcpx the other day. It was very rapid.

    Like the look of them but with the insistence that a Mac Pro update is coming, I can’t decide whether to go for the iMac pro or wait…

    You mean that you haven’t gone running out to buy your Surface Studio?

    Interesting marketing strategy by Apple, to send it out to these two guys and have them generate short videos. I am close to buying a new iMac, but don’t foresee needing to edit 8k or Red Raw in the next few years, so I will probably just load up a new iMac.

    I have followed the Hack-Intosh arguments recently, but for the not so vast unwashed masses, the iMacPro will probably meet the requirements of many editors.

    No. It’s almost the same price as the base spec iMac pro in the UK. So no.

    Vincent LaForet’s review was with the blown out version. OF course it was fast. Will the $4999 model work this well ?
    Probably not

    once again – he mentions that it’s $4999. His configuration is NOT $4999 – it’s much more expensive
