It's a "Revision A" Yosemite, which has short addressing on the IDE controller. You get 128GB max, and drives don't come that short in Fayetteville.
I figure I'll build me a nice spiffy box for not a lot of money, make some coin with it, then add a Mac Pro, a serious laser printer, and an upgraded copy of QuarkXPress to my lineup. I still need this machine, though; some of the programs I like a lot won't run on the Mac Pro. Fontographer is an absolute requirement in my work, and it's not OS X compliant. Neither is the old LetraStudio. I don't use it much because I don't distort much type, but when you NEED to distort type, ain't nothin' better.
Scanners...I want this...real bad...
http://www.bob-weber.com/showphoto.asp?uploadID=1171This is a Linotype-Hell Chromagraph S3900 drum scanner. Only $13,000--a steal when you figure that when it was new it was a quarter-million-dollar scanner.
I would also LOVE to have the Screen SG-737 drum. Now...that scanner is fucking awesome because it doesn't use a light bulb to illuminate the work--it contains three lasers. Screen (the prepress arm of Dainippon Screen Manufacturing Company, which started out making screenprinting equipment and still does) still makes drum scanners, and they will make you the eight proprietary parts in this scanner (the four gas lasers, the three photomultiplier tubes, and the controller card) if yours go bad. The rest of the parts in it are straight off-the-shelf components. These scanners make images you don't have to fuck with in Photoshop--which is good because in the day, a lot of guys didn't even have the 737 hooked to a computer. They scanned directly to separation negatives. If you've seen negs straight off a 737 compared with negs from Photoshop, you'd see a night-and-day difference. Seps directly off the 737 fuckin' GLOW, man, they're beautiful in a way seps run through Photoshop could never be.
You will never see an "Extreme Photoshop Makeover" video featuring images off a 737. Most of those "extreme" videos are nothing but color correction anyway. On the 737, or the S3900, you can correct the color in the scanner, in hardware, BEFORE you scan the image, and with far more control than Photoshop or your flatbed driver give you.
