BUT!!! I found in the Avid compatibilty chart that 2.7 is approved for PT 11.3 and @2.9 ghz for PT 11.0.3, which seems not logical, IMHO....
Any work with that 1.4GHz cpu Mac would be a disaster as it's too underpowered. 2.7GHz or 2.9GHz cpu's are okay as long as they are NOT i5 chips but i7 chips. And whatever Mac you get do NOT get one that has a Fusion drive as the system drive - those too are a no-no for PT.
