Default Re: Intel iMac 3.06 GHz not \"Officially Qualified\"

re-read what's been said.

1.) the machine is new - it's not been officially tested with pro-tools yet, hence not "certified" It should work as it's only the processor speed that changed....so if you OS supports it you should be fine

2.) Pro-tools is not support/has issues on Lepord - which your mac will come with, this should concern you more than a processor upgrade. There are pre-release versions of pro-tools that still have issues and you still can't use the latest Mac OS software updates, this SHOULD concern you much more.

3.) The sales guy suggested a mac book as it's light/small/portable most people tend to go for these (from what I've read) over imacs. There are some minor hardware differences but all in all an imac should work just as good as a macbook - or the specialist guy you saw should have said " this won't work as well as a macbook"
