Would you still buy software for "the beast" knowing that software support will be dropped anyway? I did that once, being naïve enough to believe that Rosetta (powerpc on intel) will be there forever as an option in MacOSX. Man was I dumb. Apple literally burnt $15k worth of hardware and software in front of my eyes when they announced to drop PowerPC and then Rosetta later. No. Screw that. Don't buy news Mac now. Don't make the same mistakes.

The economics may not make sense for you, but they may make sense for others for the work they’re doing. If having a fast $10K machine now will allow someone to make $500K over the next two years, that’s money well spent. If that’s not the business another is in, it may not be. And both are fine.
