I'm selling my computer (and monitor... and speakers).
It's an Apple Mac Pro with 2.66 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon, 3GB RAM (expandable to 16 GB) and two 500 GB hard-drives.
It has two DVD-RW "SuperDrives," a bunch of USB and Firewire ports, WiFi and Bluetooth (the mouse and keyboard are Bluetooth).
The display is a 24-inch Apple Cinema HD and is beautiful. It also has a bunch of USB and Firewire ports.
The speakers are JBL Creatures and match the aluminum finish of the computer and display.
I love this computer (I polish the monitor and aluminum at least once a month with iKlear...), but if our gypsy thing is going to work, I need to downsize. My plan is to sell this set up and buy a 17-inch MacBook Pro.
I'd really like to sell it to someone who will love it and care for it the way I have.
Interested? Send me an email. I'm going to list it on eBay in a day-or-so, but I thought I'd see if anyone in my "social-networking" circle was interested first.
We finally have the hardware to make this work, the Data Video HS-2000 alows us to mix 5 HD cameras live and with the AJA Ki Pro we are also able to record in ProRes 422 right on the spot.

On December 23, 2014, I donated my Mac Pro 1.1 I got in April, 2007, so it may be help someone else express their creativity and productivity.
This Mac assisted me throughout college as well as writing OpenZoom. Farewell, my friend.

For me the best example of what makes Apple special is the old Mac Pro. When designing a tower, the aim is to develop a machine that’s expandable and often form follows function in the cheapest possible way. Apple’s tower is the a piece of brilliant design full of fantastic touches. The ability to expand it without any tools. Plastic pieces edging pressed metal sections to that you don’t cut yourself. Sliding draws to make replacing hard disks simple. Even labelling to help you understand where things go. Most of this is never seen. Yet Apple’s designers didn’t compromise. The internal of a product should be as well designed as the externals. This is something few in the business can match. For me the Mac Pro tower is another Apple design classic.

It’s a simple Dock, well built.
Wanted a soft dock to charge my Stainless Steel Apple Watch at Night.

Even though the pic above illustrates its point using an outdated G5, it really shows why people are willing to pay extra for a Mac.
Say what you want about the accessibility and wealth of choice in the PC world, but if you're really not that much of a tweaker, a Mac is a good buy.
Compatibility and cooling headaches become a thing of the past.
The great thing here is that since this picture, the design of the Mac Pro has gotten even more simple. The hard drives and RAM are now slot inserted into the case for easier access and removal.
And Apple kept the controversial grill cheese grater design, which allows a maximum amount of airflow. Taken altogether, the Mac Pro is without a doubt, the best designed computer in history.

To give a personalized touch to all my thank you cards for Christmas this year, I decided to do a very quick photo shoot that had me highlighting the various gifts I go from friends and family. It actually turned out to be quite fun. However, I'm still having trouble coming up with a way to highlight the gifts from Santa as he gave me a wide range of gifts. Not to mention I don't have his e-mail address so I don't know how to get him the thank you. Hmm....
One slot free now... slot 3. Had to configure the 16x slot as 8x, slot 2 as 8x, slot 3 as 1x and slot 4 as 8x. Don't know what I will do when I get a fibre channel card... poor AJA Kona LHe will have to be moved to a 1x slot.

This is a short clip of the weekend animal market in Otavalo, Ecuador which brings Quechua speaking people from surrounding villages to trade and barter a variety of animals and other goods. It is a colorful social event as well as venue for local commerce.
This video was produced following a 2008 visit to Ecuador. Scenes were shot with a high end consumer SONY HD AVCHD HANDYCAM in 1920 x 1080i resolution. The video/audio clips were produced with iMovie HD on a MacPro computer.
