New Mac Pros!

ByMike Moffit

Apple preempted a potential Macworld keynote topic by announcing new Mac Pros this morning.

PROCESSOR
The new machines are the fastest Macs ever, thanks to eight-core processing power. The Mac Pros include 2 quad core Intel Xeon processors dubbed “Harpertown” processors.

RAM
The Mac Pros can now support up to 32GB of RAM (that’s right, 32GB!); can you imagine how fast your files would load then?

STORAGE
Every machine still comes standard with four 3.5-inch drive bays, now for capacities up to 4TB! Installation is easy due to the “direct-attach” installation system.

GRAPHICS
One has dual 30-inch display support out of the box with the standard graphics card, the ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT with 256MB of GDDR3 memory and PCI Express 2.0.

The standard Mac Pro is $2,799.99, with numerous custom configuration options, and are available to ship for delivery in 7-10 days; click here for details.

  • Content Aware Fill in Photoshop CS5

    We recently installed Adobe’s newly released “*Creative Suite 5*”:http://cs5.org/ on a few of our machines. One of the first features I was eager to try out was the new “Content Aware Fill” in Photoshop.

    This new feature allows you to make a quick selection within an image, delete it, and automatically fill in a randomized background based on the surrounding elements within the image.

    After tinkering with the new tool for a bit, I found that it worked best with natural organic images, such as the landscape scene featured in the video below. While it does not always do a perfect job, you can reselect pieces of the image after filling, and refill them to make the image more realistic.

    While this tool is not useful 100% of the time, when the situation and image permits, it can save a ton of time!
