The new MacPro is fucking MONSTER!!
 
Wow, what a machine! Dual Quad Core Xeon 2.8Ghz 12MB cache per processor 1.6Ghz bus, amazing RAM up to 32GB excellent graphics and not to mention storage up to 4TB . The price is pretty fair considering the specs! Just 2.8 grand. I am definitely considering buying this one!!
IT FUCKING ROX!

Pretty neat except the way you described it (32gb ram, 4tb space) would set you back about 14 grand. I bet it'd rock for video editing and such though.

I used the configure now button and maxed out the ram, cpu hard drives and video card. My final price was $20,197.00

$18,399.00 without the 2 23 inch monitors.

Nice spec, but the only thing that lets it down is that fact is a Mac...

tony286 01-09-2008 07:08 AM

they got balls for what they charge for ram.

Farang 01-09-2008 07:21 AM

32gb ram - OMG

Brad Gosse 01-09-2008 07:38 AM

We run the last gen 8 cores here and they are awesome. Apple makes the best hardware IMO

Karupted Charles 01-09-2008 08:38 AM

You can save allot of money if you buy the memory after market. By allot I mean you can save up to 1500 if your going with the 32 and FYI it can go up to 64 not 32.

Chris 01-09-2008 08:40 AM

yea i got that email last night

notoldschool 01-09-2008 08:47 AM

right, apple has insane prices for very common hardware :(

beta-tester 01-09-2008 11:16 AM

that's retouched hardware with amazing and the most quality parts in it. That's why they charge so much for it. Oh and they make everything alone except the processors. 3 grand for such machine is nothing imo!

And the fact you'll never be able to buy one.

pornguy 01-09-2008 11:23 AM

they even have the two click mouse for them now.

I just dont like the price

The Truth Hurts 01-09-2008 11:27 AM

2g to 4g of ram... $500..... for ~$100 worth of extra ram?

wtf?

The Truth Hurts 01-09-2008 11:29 AM

$60 hard drive addition for $250...
these people are smoking crack..

tranza 01-09-2008 11:31 AM

Looks pretty awesome indeed...

teg0 01-09-2008 11:40 AM

Not really... they don't make RAM, don't make hard drives, don't make video cards.. and charge a crapload for them.

I do love my macbook though... with aftermarket hard drive and ram.

get a supermicro board snd blow that thing out of the water.

i have almost the same thing, basically the last model before the latest powermac and anyone of our rendering machines can smoke it in any benchtest. to top it off we have 2 employees who were formally in the "mac cult" and now see the light.

aico 01-09-2008 09:11 PM

I just ordered 5 of em.

split_joel 01-09-2008 09:36 PM

Great price, and on the cheaper end all you have to do is buy all the ram and hard drives somewhere else other then Apple and you will save well over 8,000 dollars

Spunky 01-09-2008 09:39 PM

Looks like a pretty sweet machine
