August 8, 2006 at 3:21 amCan I get my Kona SD to work in the MAC Pro ?
can you refund my money that I paid for my Kona SD, to get a new Blackmagic card ?
Can I do uncompressed HD on the Mac Pro with a Firewire 400 drive ?
Can I send my Pinnacle CineWave card to AJA to get it to work in the MAC Pro ?
Now that the MacPro is out, can the Kona 3 work with the AVID MC Software ?
Do I still need to buy a Black generator if I get the MAC Pro ?
Will HDV look like 4:4:4 HD-SDI if I get the Mac Pro ?come on – at least some of these are funny.

What other features have made it into v3 for us with a non-Intel computer or is this only a rev for the intel macs?
Thx!

You don’t mention non-Express models? Am I m istaken, or does the new Mac pro also support PCI-X cards as well as PCI-Express? If so, will version 3 support cards like the LH?

Mac Pro is PCIe only. PCI-X is end of life for Mac.
