Maybe you should say:

"Intel Quad Core! Crazy!"

[Stabilo7]

wow
that's insane.... imagine that with the 16gb or ram :p lol and the 4 750gb hd you can get...
or the 4 video cards???

[Codegen]

"I may have a small dick, but I have 8 cores in my system!"

Edit: Oh, Xeon. Server system.

Only $20,728 plus tax for the computer with all the options what a deal...

[MrDisco]

it shall be mine after tommorow

[gamer123]

Only $20,728? This should be in the hot deals section!

Now, if you're going to use a number like that, explain to all those that see the number and choke what is included.

(I highly doubt too many on this board would be maxing out the computer to that level)

i haven't looked.
but i could only assume dual 30inch cinemas
16gb ram
terabytes worth of harddrive space
dual video cards (maybe quad. who knows)
6ghz

If you're serious, I envy you. Even the dual core xeons are fast like a bat out of hell.

I love Macs, but I hate the prices.

I bet you would use money from 649 to buy this. :cheesygri

Octo Core. Sounds cool.

Actually, they're just slapping in 2 quad cores. That doesn't count.

Thank you so much for providing this.

[Oversized Rooster]

Well the thing is that the Cloverton processor is not even launched yet...so these are obviously back-orders.

And sorry, that CPU will look much better in a non-Apple case running non-Apple software.

[Cafe_333]

Is that a Mac Fanboy starting to embrace Intel now? :D
I agree with the others here, it's not really 8-core when it's a dual processor machine.

[board123]

Wow...$20,000? What a rip off! For $20,000 you can build a much better dual quad-core machine. People who buy this thing are ********.

[Outphase]

I play with the apple store website sometimes and the maxed out configuration is about 20k, though it comes with 16 gb of ram, 2 30'inch display, and dual quadro's i believe, sure its pricy but if you really need a uber workstation with 16 gb of ram, then it might work :P

know of any better looking cases?

MDG sales guy would says "We are selling a 24Ghz PC system while you are still using a 3Ghz system!"

ahahha....zing!

From an investment standpoint, this is a very bad investment indeed. The prices are going to depreciate to $3000 by the time 16 core comes out, and to $1500 by the time 32 core comes out. We all know that won't be long from now...

Mac's are useless.

Even if the machine itself is powerful, you can't do anything on it.
