OK, thanks to everyone pointing me in the right direction. Now ask for a little more assistance.
I need to purchase a MAc for a Photoshop Workstation. Does not need to store anything, just be used for design work and processing RAW files.
I have a budget of about $1000 to work with. My first guess would be an 8 core 2.8 machine, but I see newer 4 core Mac Pros with slower processors costing more.
Where is the sweet spot in that range?
I currently have an early Mac Pro, a 4 core 2.66 machine and my new i7 Mac Mini at home is a good bit faster at most things.
What should I look for?
