This is good news, and bad news. Since I am buying a G5 this is great that you are offereing the upgrade path. Will this be a OS wide upgrade? In other words, will PC users be able to upgrade also?

What a joke! So if the thousands of people that have 001's want to get a G5, it means they have to buy more DIGI hardware. Sounds like a ploy to get us to spend money DIGI. That really sucks. It doesn't affect me, because I would never buy a G5. Who can afford one? And I don't have an 001. But I was thinking about getting an 001 to run on a PC platform.
All you 001 owners that were excited about the G5 are getting bent over and done dry! Ouch!!! That's gotta hurt. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] |
Re: Power Mac G5 & Digidesign PCI Cards
this is NOT Digi's fault...it's apples. The system PTLE works fine with what they have. If you are getting a g5 all they are saying is that you can upgrade....probably get more for your 001 than you will on ebay and get into something new.
Don't open your mouth if you have nothing intelligent to say. If you were going to buy a 001, you still can. You just can't use it in a G5 and if you CANT AFFORD A G5. THAN THIS SHOULD NOT MATTER TO YOU. |
Re: Power Mac G5 & Digidesign PCI Cards
You know what? That SUX real bad!
I was hoping I could stay w/ my 001 and go for a G5... Now, if we want to upgrade our computers... we have to upgrade to a new interface (FW) or to a HD rig... uhhh... screw digi and apple... |

As a 001 owner. I'm not mad at Digi or Apple at all. It's called progress. Wiz |
Re: Power Mac G5 & Digidesign PCI Cards
I can't believe Digi won't support my PT III NuBus system on G5's! I spent a lot of money, I demand NuBus support NOW!!!! [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

As far as who can afford one, our dual G4 500's were $3499. A dual 2gig is at $2999. Sounds like a $500 price drop for a machine that's at least 3 times faster....and much more affordable. |

However there's a big difference between digi and apple: 001 42 months any apple computer 6 months (and cost 3 times...) ...and a lot of pain to have the right update [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img] |
