 Mac Accessories
Ok so I'm close to ordering my Mac Pro. I will be using it for gaming, designing, audio production and web development purposes. Added onto the order aswell I have my screen (obviously), the Elgato EyeTV2, Logic Studio 8 and an iPod Classic. I already have VMware Fusion or Parrallels available to me aswell as MS Office for Mac. Can anyone recommend any other software, or accessories to add to my order? Muchos gracios.
Seb

Logic Studio has to be the best, and would be the only thing i recommend for that. Aswel as some excellent speakers, such as the Harmon Sound Sticks II.
If you're doing web dev stuff I recommend; CSSEdit 2, TextMate, Transmit, Coda. Photoshop? Pixelmator?

Any specific models? We had a 5.1 surround sound system by Aiwa and it was great output however the soundsticks have fantastic quality. All the best with it!
Anyways, when you do get your Mac Pro just give a shout and I or a few other Mac users will be happy to help. I'll give you a url to a great mac forum

Whats the point of wasting money on another keyboard and mouse when you get ones with it? He's already got a screen too.

It comes with more features, and some people don't like the Mac keyboard.

Only thing I would consider really is an external HDD, they're always handy. I have a gaming keyboard which I may use for gaming, depends how the new keyboard is really. Thanks though
