*** This type of Apple computer has been dwindling in popularity due to people thinking you cannot upgrade the operating system. This is simply NOT true. All 2009 to 2012 Mac Pro towers can be upgraded with Metal-supported graphics card & OS patcher to run up to macOS Sequoia 15 operating system... and YES, they are still the most dependable and easily repaired Mac for your home, office or studio needs. ***
I have some upgraded 2009, 2010, 2012 Mac Pro 5,1 towers that are currently running either macOS Sonoma 14 or macOS Sequoia 15 operating system, but I can install any older version you need for it to match your software. These are perfect for a home or work computer system, and might also be perfect for your editing or music production use. These will be sold with your choice of macOS Sonoma 14 or macOS Sequoia 15 operating system (unless you request an earlier OS in advance) and will come with full versions of Final Cut Pro, Motion, Compressor, Logic Pro and MainStage 3 if you need them, BUT they will only work with the later OS versions that I install. ** Please inquire about "sometimes" losing all Bluetooth capabilities when upgrading to Sequoia 15. **
For added peace of mind, all of my Mac Pros come w/30-Day 100% Parts & Repair Warranty, plus a Lifetime Repair Warranty after the 30 days (you just pay for parts after 30 days)... and of course, free upgrades on the operating system if you cannot upgrade on your own (NO NEED for Apple Customer Support).
I have just a few upgraded models listed here, priced as noted - NO less - NO offers - NO trades, but I also have another 20 various 2009, 2010 & 2012 Quad/Six/Eight/Twelve-core Mac Pros sitting here ready ($500-$1,000) that I can customize up or down for your specific budget and specific needs. CALL TO DISCUSS WHAT YOU NEED so I can suggest the right Mac Pro for the job. Call me to be sure of availability of what is posted now, because sometimes things are in the process of selling while you're looking.

These Mac Pros run great and are in decent physical condition, no bent handles/supports, just the typical dings, nicks, scuffs and/or scratches that aluminum Macs get. I recently lowered these prices because I am running out of space here, so the prices are FIRM - NO Less - NO Offers. I prefer CASH or Zelle bank transfer, but feel free to discuss before you come here. No credit card machine here, maybe you can cash-advance your card at your bank if you need to use a card. I have many Mac Pro towers so I am typically NOT interested in other Mac Pro trades, but if you have something 2nd Amendment related to trade or something I might need we can discuss that.
They will be set up and will be ready for you to check them out, make your purchase decision at that time, so your choice MUST BE PICKED UP AT MY HOME in Cedar Hill MO 63016. NO shipping - NO delivery - NO meeting anywhere. I'll give you a receipt with specs & serial number, so you'll have proof of purchase for your insurance needs and admin password so you'll be able to add your accounts & additional software easily. All will be ready to go after your choice of OS has been made - GIVE ME A CALL if you have any additional questions or to schedule a time to come see them, possible take one home with you. If you need something bigger/better/faster than this one, I might just have it sitting here - CALL ME to inquire. ** NOTE: No address will be given out until I TALK to whomever wants to come out here, NO EXCEPTIONS, to make sure I'm dealing with a human and not a text scam or someone just trying to case my house for theft. **
We're getting into the colder weather now, and the potbellied pigs here at my State-registered non-profit animal care & rescue are hiding in their condos most of the day depending on the temperature. Save some time while you're here to see if they're out and relax from the hustle/bustle and noise of the city. Bring the kids, walk through the woods, or just enjoy it by yourself.
