It seems many topics i found related to 3ds Max&Vray on a Mac are dated or with very less information.. the test are very basic and i haven’t found a pro saying “it just works”.

Roest, wait for Peter Guthrie to answer. He’s using apple.

Hey, I’m on holiday! but seeing as Roest asked nicely… I just use windows on my mac pro via bootcamp. In fact I can’t even boot to osx any more as I installed a non osx friendly graphic card. Basically its a windows machine, behaves exactly as any other windows machine 'cept it looks nice.

Thanks for taking the time Peter, I really appreciate :slight_smile: So I see, yeah the looks are great but also how things are organised with less cables, how apple products work with each other, etc..also this new thunderbolt could be quit handy for lots of data transfers between rendernotes.

thanks for the 2p’s :slight_smile: I totally understand. If it was for work i triple think about buying a mac, but for me it’s home use, mostly editing photo’s, exploring 3d techniques and 3d portfolio work. I has to be descent and powerfull. I’m also not planning to upgrade the next years unless i…
