Default Please suggest the one best MacPro forum similar to the DUC.

I am not a “web surfer” kind of guy. This is the only forum I go to. In 2004 I did look at a lot of “prediction” sites as I was very interested in getting a large monitor as soon as possible (it turned out to be the 30” inch Apple monitor that I now have). I have a great deal of difficulty with my eyesight and wanted to magnify everything as much as is reasonable and get it as soon as possible.
I have plenty of Mac Pro related problems. As this is not the proper place to post general computer difficulties I was hoping to be directed to the “best” forum on the Internet. I would prefer a site without four letter words and arguments. I feel that Digidesign is doing a reasonable job with this forum so I was hoping to be directed to a similarly supervised site where I can ask questions that a businessperson could post and get intelligent answers. I look for posters like Steve MacMillan, dmazurek, Eric Lambert, uno123, crizdee, Andre Knecht , Lee Blaske, MARVINBASS, Chief Technician, Rail Jon Rogut, jimlongo, studiojimi, Wolfgang Eller, Mark Wheaton, Eric Seaberg, Mt.Everest, and of course DigiTechSupt when I am at the DUC. I am hoping to find help of this level for general Mac problems.

Really, I think your best bet for general Mac questions is to go directly to the "Discussions" area on Apple's website. Apple runs a fairly tight ship, so you shouldn't be bothered by much obscenity.

I do check with the fori on Apple’ site when I try to address a specific issue.

When I want to scan the horizon for trouble looming ahead (i.e. prior to upgrades, or just because), I tend to read Rick Ford’s excellent Macintouch site, as well as MacFixIt. Of course, there are many more — expect more fellow DUC travelers to chime in.

IHTH.

Macintouch is also helpful, here's their page on MacPros
Macintouch MacPro problems page

Also, XLR8yourMac.com is helpful
XLR8yourMac

Then there's Big Blue Lounge which is a great info site
Big Blue Lounge OS X Audio

For new Mac Music software, nothing beats the daily updates from
macmusic.org

Dan Knight's Lowendmac has some good info on mac issues and their awesome DEALS page where you can find screaming deals from reputable resellers (last months $100 ibooks being a good example
LowEndMac.com

Good luck,
Best
