Pro Bundles

The MacPros might seem only for the heavy production situations after using them personally I'm pleased to see that there are distinct benefits for the the multi-tasking power user as well.
This is the first Mac that no matter what you throw at it - it does not bog or hesitate. Oh yeah - completely silent. The OS distributes the processing across the cores up to 16 processes at a time - brilliant.
You'll not regret it. Long term buy for the discerning Mac lover

New Portables. comments

First these are NOT Quads in the sense that the iMacs are so no you won't replace your MacPro with these. They are however very powerful and good value.
For us the 15s are the big rebirth. An i5 with 36% more screen space and a matte screen is a winner at less than $2k.
The i7 17" with 8 gigs of ram under $3k and the ability to go to a 1 TB internal is a winner for the video crowd

These days personal and staff productivity is critical - $3 a day gets you $3,000 of productive horsepower.
What is your time worth, your staff's???........let us assess your needs.

Monitors are not all created equal - talk to us about your needs. For colour correct work we have 20" 1600x1200 and 24/30 ISPS panels you will be thrilled with.

Nec 90 series Whether upper end colour expert or just plain loves a great monitor don't miss this opportunity for factory refurb NEC 12 bit screens. The 1600x1200 2090uxi is a treat for the eyes, the wallet and the workspace. Only 5% less workspace than a 24" and images to die for.

NEC 2090uxi - 1 year factory warranty...compare at $1300 1.92 million pixels, height, tilt and full rotation 12 bit colour $499

NEC 2490 UXi II new $899 - refurb $644

2690uxi2 factory refurb out of stock

In the colour business for 20+ years have had many displays, never has their been one as accurate.
invited colleagues to see it they were just as amazed P.Legg


"I have been using my NEC 2090uxi for about 2 years already, so far no issues. I 'dual-head' two 2090uxi monitors at home (due to my small desk space) and a 2690uxi in my studio.
As a past Eizo user, I find NEC XX90uxi series monitors better and more cost effective than Eizo ColorEdge."

-------------------

"Who is it For?
If you're a photographer or designer working with color managed applications, and the best display you've ever used is an Apple Cinema Display, this monitor will rock your world. Its ease of calibration and color quality is outstanding. Most especially, if you are going to print your work on a high-quality printer, you'll appreciate being able to see what you are going to print that much more accurately."

Featured in a number of our bundles . You will be FOREVER spoiled...I know I am. I've got three on my desk now. As a MacPro owner you can put just shy of 8 million pixels of workspace on your desktop.!! for under $2k

CAUTION: We are seeing too many drives failing in 2-3 year old portables. Please backup daily, we highly recommend having your drive scanned for bad blocks. We'll do it for free with the purchase of any backup drive. Talk to us. Replacing the internal drive with larger, cooler running long warranty drives is worth doing as well.

Storage and Backup
3 year warranty on all drives, some with 5 year
Super quiet backup with Oxford 911 chipset.

Why buy a USB key - 120 gigs in a tiny format starting at $77

Backup with ease...Backup is critical.
For as little as $77 including the hard drive you can have totally safe backup in OS9 OR OSX!! . The backups are easy and as frequent as you wish and if something goes wrong on the main drive you can immediately boot into the backup. What are you waiting for??
We've rescued way too many "almost disasters" in the last few months where drive component failures or directory failures have put important data at risk. Storage is so cheap right now there is simply no reason not to have backup and preferably removable backup like Firewire drives that can be kept away from the computer in case of theft. ANY Mac with a PCI port can have a Firewire port for less than $50.
