I'm not real knowledgable about Mac gear or model numbers, but the one thing that i would be concerned about would be upgradability. Since Mac gear is not cheap ( what is anymore ??? ) and HT standards keep changing, this is a legit concern. I know that Mac had a pre - pro that they were upgrading for a short period of time and then stopped offering that service all of a sudden. A local Mac dealer told me that he had a ton of local's raising hell with him about this. They were VERY unhappy about being left out in the rain with nowhere else to go. All of a sudden, they no longer think of Mas as a company that stands behind their gear "forever". Sean
