Hi,
A local person is trying to sell his 1.1 Mac Pro (with the dual Xeon 2.66 configuration) and I have been interested in purchasing it.
He upgraded the RAM to 11gb and threw in a few other drives to equal just over 3tb throughout the course of him owning it. It looks like it's in pretty good condition.
Is $450 just for the computer a good deal? Or am I going to regret the purchase because it's 2006 hardware? I am mainly looking for a computer that will do some heavy lifting of video transcoding and also act as a general use/media server rig.
Thoughts? BTW he's also including a Bluetooth Apple keyboard with the Mighty Mouse.
