Meet Your New Mac Pro
A Great Mid-Level Mac Pro for high performance tasks, reliability, and customization
Why a Mac Pro?
Graphics and video editing require extra performance that the iMac and MacBook Pro can't offer.   With a two quad-core Intel Xeon processors, 32GB RAM, and an ATI 2600XT graphics card, it offers good performance.  This is a great mid-level Mac Pro.
For video-intensive applications, such as video editing, a higher performance video card can be installed.  Please contact me for upgrade info.

Built to Last
Utilizing enterprise-grade processors and memory, makes this Mac Pro the fastest and most reliable.
Intel Xeon processors are used in servers and workstation computers. Combined with ECC (Error Correcting Code) DDR2 memory, this ensures that the possibility of data corruption is kept to a minimum.

Storage - Times Four
Backups are a breeze, and by simply adding an additional hard drive, Apple's built-in Time Machine can help keep the moments you worked so hard to capture safe from hard drive failure.
Solid state drives (SSDs) can also be installed, offering up to twenty times the performance of a standard hard drive.
Mac Pro's support up to four hard drives or solid state drives in their drive bays.
Mac OS X El Capitan
This Mac Pro is running Mac OS X El Capitan.  If you need a Mac that supports a higher version of Mac OS X, please contact me!  Mac OS X El Capitan is the highest version of Mac OS X that Apple officially supports on this Mac.
Apple's built-in Migration Assistant makes it easy to switch from a PC, or to transfer your files from a different Mac. It can also run older versions, if needed.
