Re: Two hard drives and one SSD; optimal install strategy?
I actually looked into Win or Hackintosh, tempted by the hardware Horsepower for low $ but ended up buying a used 4,1 2009 Mac Pro and flashing the EFI to 5,1, then doing a CPU/GPU swap, so my '09 is now equivalent to a 2012 3.33 Hex Mac Pro in every way but its serial number.

Re: Rollin' into April and still no 8.1...grrrrrrr
Well, I think the delay of DP8 Windows is more of a serious image damage for MOTU as MOTU is not showing their business from it´s best side right now.
