I wouldn't necessarily run DP on the Mini, but could just run VE Pro under the 64-bit kernel and host all 64-bit VIs. Since my particular MacPro will not boot the 64-bit kernel, it will remain my DP master--- until DP goes 64-bit. That's a whole other story.
This sounds like the way to go! :dance:

Well, IT WORKED!

Now I can load almost 2 full more GB of samples. Now I'm really using the full 6 GB of RAM :P

That's almost the equivalent of what I can load on each of my PCs. So I guess I owe you one PC?!?? :lol:

How could I forget that? I guess that since I run the 32 bit server on all the slaves, I forgot about my 6 GB RAM on the iMac!

I was VERY moody and self-annoyed. Now I'm back to normal and am happy again!
1000 gracias por el recordatorio, amigo!
:lol: :lol:

Con sólo los respetos más altos a Usted de Tierra-Media, mi amigo. :wink:

I saw this but wanted an all-in-one approach with hot swappable HD bays (2.5' and 3.5') etc. in one. Just a matter of time I guess.
