Mac Pro is on its way

When seeing that the special Apple event of last Tuesday did not yield anything about Mac Pros, I decided to order one. It is due later this week. All I need to do now is to prepare the computer corner in my home-office and prepare the data on my Powermac for transfer to the Mac Pro.

Currently my desk houses a Powermac and it just fits on the desk, under the shelf above it. The Mac Pro is, with its 51 cm in height, almost 9 centimeters taller than the Powermac and it will not fit. So some remodelling needs to be done there.

In the three years of its life, my Powermac acquired a lot of applications. Most of them I do not need and some of them I've never used. Moving towards a new computer is a nice moment to do some belated spring-cleaning. And since the Powermac uses ATA-100 drives and the Mac Pro uses S-ATA drives, I can't just put the drives of the old computer into the new one. So we'll see how it will go.
