Does anyone know if the new 8 core Mac Pro...

[alw4416]

Will run PT LE 7.4? Just trying to find out if it will even run and recognize all 8 cores? I realize Digi does not "officially" support it yet but someone must surely know if it works? Thanks!

Mine will be here on Monday, I'll let you know.

I am prepared to wait awhile though if it doesn't work.

This is a little off topic, but does anyone know if you can clone from a Tiger machine to get Tiger working on the new macs?

Smithcok, shoot me an email at [email protected] I want to discuss with you, thanks!

I spoke to Apple and they said that you can install Tiger on the new Mac Pro 8 core so I don't see why not?

That's interesting...I understand you CANNOT install Tiger on the latest MacBook Pros that come with Leopard.

I don't know about the MacBook Pro but I can only tell you what they said about the new Mac Pro. Anyway,,,,,does anyone know the answer to the question posted about whether PT LE will run on the new Mac Pro 8 core???

I will post results on Tuesday when I get my machine.

Does anyone have a link as to how exactly to clone a drive, or at least a link to a website? I am pretty sure, but I don't want to screw it up.

I can either clone mine with a newer iMac, a MacBook Pro, or a PowerMac (but not the last one until a week later). I figure I will try the machines I have close, and if they don't work, try the powermac when I am out of town in a week or so.

Thanks

I've had it running with no immediate problems, but I haven't had a chance to tax the system or do any in depth work.

I've read that the version of the Tiger OSX discs you use make a difference...must be the version for binary. Why can't people hold off on a $5000 machine until it is 100% supported? ( Although, I must say, the new Macpros are hot ....)
