    Hi,

    I am waiting to purchase a new quad-core i7 iMac with 8Gb RAM. I own VI Special Edition, the SE Plus edition, and Key—not yet installed.

    1. Will a DVD version of VE Pro 3 be available soon? My current computer can't handle any downloads.

    2. Will the new i7 iMac handle the VE Pro 3 and Vienna Suite with the SE libraries? From what I have read, yes. Or am I kidding myself? I know that a Mac Pro is ideal.

    3. If you had the new i7 iMac and a future Mac Pro how would you arrange your setup? Which would be the master and which the slave? All libraries on the Mac Pro, VE Pro on both computers, Vienna Suite on ???, sequencer on the iMac.  ???

    4. If I order before Nov 30 (special deal) and get the Epic Horns or Appasionata Strings as the free instrument download, is there much duplication of these instruments in the Epic Orchestra? I know there is a little.

    Thanks. -- John
