Recommend Mac Setup (repost sorry)
Maybe a stupid post with a million different types of response, but….
I am speccing out a computer for work. And I was wondering if you could reccomend a setup that is somewhere around the mid price range but will still be good in a few years time.
Not expecting to work with dual monitors, but will be using FCP and motion heavily.
{edit}
OK I guess around the $6,500 mark. Or is that too cheap for something that should still be very competitive in a couple of years.
The computer will be used mainly for FCP shooting HDV footage, and also a lot of Motion 3 work, so it will need a lot of RAM.

I think $6500 dollars is plenty will get you a decent Mac, but if you want a Kona 3 card, that will eat up a lot of your budget.
Since Motion is so RAM intensive, I’d buy as much RAM as I can from http://www.otherworldcomputing.com. It’s Mac Certified, very affordable, and I’ve been using it since I got my Mac Pro and have never had problems with it.
