Any new Mac you buy will NOT run PT10. New Macs have either Sierra or High Sierra. Your best bet in a 'new' machine is to pick up a used/refurb machine to which you can install an OSX that will run PT10. The latest OSX that will successfully run PT10 is OSX 10.9.5 even though it's not considered compatible by Avid with PT10 because the uninstaller doesn't work. Take a look at the machines that OWC has especially if you want to stay with a McPro cheesegrater. Your biggest problem after getting any 'new' Mac will be getting an old OSX full installer unless some kind soul gives you one.

Be aware that a lot of developers have dropped support for PT10 for both RTAS and aax32 format plugins.
