And Already on the front page of Apple.com Coming in at £1,264.612 or $2,499.00 for a base model of two 2.0Ghz Dual-Core Intel, you’d have to add another £909.367 or $1797 for the two 3.0GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon.
And that’s not too mention the additional 15gb of RAM you can now stick in the over-sized cheese grater, OR the NVIDIA Quadro FX 4500 512MB, Stereo 3D (2 x dual-link DVI) and let’s face it, if you’re going all balls in why not add a few extra drives for when you really need those 3 terabytes of space.
You can now max out the configuration at a price of around £8,761.196 or $17,313.00 which is about the same as you’d pay for a half decent second hand car
I’ve been thinking about upgrading my G4 PowerBook to a G5, and now I’m dumbstruck as to idea of an 8 core beast. That thing could bend light.
