For all its corny looks, it does have a bit of that old 90's SGI coolness.
Well maybe that is what makes it look so corny, it looks like something SGI
designed in the 90's :-D

But only 4 ram slots? that is going to be seriously expensive to get up to
a workable amount. Minimum 64GB i would say for AE work. And does it have 2
or 1 CPUs? and will the new E5 Xeons that come out later this year have
12cores when the current have max 8 cores?

well.... at least it doesnt look like my current Z820 wont the seriously
outdated anytime soon with this macpro :-)
