My Mac is starting to feel really slow and outdated, but when I look at the new computers Apple is offering I cringe at the cost / performance.
Most of the Mac's haven't been updated in forever, and in the Mac forums, a lot of people think Apple is shifting their focus away from the Mac permanently in favor of iPhones, iPads and iWatches. I suppose the newer iMac or MBPro could be good options, but I hate to buy those machines when I don't want a laptop AND I already have nice displays, bluetooth keyboards, and a magic mouse.
I'm starting to think it makes sense to just bite the bullet and switch to a PC for production and install Cubase there. I'm going to lose a lot of the plug-ins and software I have which is Mac only and I'll have to sell my Apogee interface, but part of me thinks it's a trap to continue to invest in the Mac ecosystem at this point.
What are everyone's thoughts on this?
