Hi, This bluetooth keyboard has a number pad built into it. I will find
out the brand of the keyboard but it is probably just a normal keyboard
as the teacher told me it came with the computer or in the bundle that
they bought. Nick Gawronski

is this a full sized Bluetooth keyboard with a numpad on it not a separate bt
keyboard and bt numpad? If so could you find out the brand/model and share?
Also do you know if the function keys on that bluetooth keyboard work with the
predetermined apple hotkeys, such as controlling volume and media playback?

Hi, My school has a mac computer with a bluetooth keyboard and it has a number
pad on it and I was able to use it with no major issues. I think I remember
someone saying these did not work well with pro tools but this one worked fine
for both me and the sited people in my class. Nick Gawronski

don't forget the iMacs, Some bang for bucks can be had in the desktop

I seem to remember hearing that the Mini Server edition did not play nicely
with Pro Tools. I'd just be careful about looking into that for anyone
considering that route.

SO do I, generally... If I went the mini route, I'd definitely be upgrading the
ram myself. As for SSD's; apple are charging £160 for a single 256GB ssd, which
isn't far off everywhere else. For 2 of them, however, they want £480... work
that one out.
If it were just 1 SSD, I'd go with apple's; beats taking the logic board out,
and besides if you have a non apple SSD with OSX, you must install trim enabler
- and run it every time you do an update, which would become annoying. There's
a special bracket required to put 2 drives in a mini - it's not, unfortunately,
a standard thing in every mini; only certain configurations!

Ah, who designed that! Apple are missing an obvious configuration
there. Had no idea that was the case as I generally pick up parts and
upgrade after purchase to save a few quid.
Good luck with the new machine. May she be speedy.

Thanks Scott, Nick and Slau - it looks like I'll probably forget the
mini, as it's a little behind in terms of technology.
I was considering a mac mini server; however, I wanted an SSD. If you
add an SSD to a server, you don't get the extra 1TB hard drive in
addition - the choices are either:
2 1TB drives
1 SSD
2 SSD's
For the price of apple's 2 SSD's I could buy a thunderbolt drive. It's a
shame; a server mini with an SSD and a 1TB drive would be perfect.
However; what I ultimately need is speed; and the macbook pro will give
me more of that than the mini.

Since you said you preferred desktops, if you do go the Mac Mini
route, look into the Mac Mini server line.

Hi, I would go with the mac book pro as you can take it with you and
have editing abilities on the road. That is why I bought my mac book
pro for just this reason. Nick Gawronski

Hey all,
What are your thoughts on the below machines:
Mac mini. 2.6GHZ Ivybridge Core I7 quad core CPU. 16GB ram, 256GB SSD.
vs...
Macbook pro, retina, 15". 2.6GHZ Haswell I7. 16GB ram. 1TB PCE-Based
Flash
I'd like a decent machine for ProTools. I do like desktop machines;
but if the macbook pro would be considerably faster, I'll use a
laptop. Drive space isn't a consideration.
Thoughts?
Thanks
Ashley
