I just got a Mac Pro, and am astounded to find out that no Native Instrument Libraries will work on it -- and I only depend on them for just about everything (East West, Garritan, and God knows what else).

Am I out of mind, or just going out of my mind? I have to use a 5-year-old G4 for music production, and use my Mac Pro for e-mail?

There's almost no mention of this on these or any other forums around the web.

Have I got this right? What do you think -- should I hang tight, or return the Mac Pro and try and find a Quad somewhere?
