But since said SB Xeon is not coming, my choices are now hoping = people will unload old Mac Pro’s cheap on eBay or look for a write = off and donate one to the film. I certainly can’t justify = buying one of the current models at Apple’s price. I could also = consider building a beefier Hackintosh – and now that choice is = much more attractive as a reasonably solid Lion Hackintosh can be built = cheap.

A film is – or should be – more like music than like = fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, = what’s behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes = later.
