This is totally where our motion department is right now. We're running propped up cheesegraters with 1080 cards in them, would probably all prefer to use OSX if we could, but it's going to come down to support for the software we need to use. Which, in addition to AE, is C4D, Octane, Redshift, Houdini, and a little bit of Nuke and Maya/Arnold. From the day of the announcement, I was worried about them not having Nvidia cards and how that is going to play out with a bunch of software companies that have larger user bases on Windows/Nvidia to support. We actually have the budget to spend a bunch of money on computers but its just feeling so hard to justify the Mac Pro for reasons in addition to price. Very curious to see what the price differential for comparable hardware ends up being. It's not even a question which way I'd go if it was my own money. This has been a good discussion to read. Thank y'all,  - Nathan On Tue, Dec 10, 2019 at 8:35 AM Mike Abbott <AE-List@media-motion.tv> wrote:
