thanks dan, well said, I have to agree with you, with one minor correction - apple only mentions that the memory thru-put is 60GB/s that isn't the capacity. I would guess the RAM is in an increment of 8 (ie 32, 64, or 128) just a guess.

ps I must spend too much time on Facebook as I wanted to "like" your response - consider this a like

God, what a bunch of negative blockheads on this list. I just read all 60+ posts on this subject.

You complain about the price of the new Mac Pro, but you don't know how much they will sell it for.

You complain about the graphics, but you haven't seen any benchmarks.

You complain about too many cables, without understanding ANYTHING about thunderbolt, cause if you did, you'd know you can daisy chain all your external devices.

You don't know how much ram you can get into the Mac Pro, when a simple check of the Apple web site reveals up to 60 gigs.

You perceive a computer that's not fast enough, doesn't have great GPU's and yet you have NO idea how it will stack up to competitors computers.

It's time to get off your high horses and realize that it doe not matter till we have real world tests. Then you can trash it.

Also, I doubt we will see this new computer till most likely early next year (when Intel releases the new Thunderbolt 2 chips), so lots can change between now and then.

And just because I responded to Dennis' post, does not mean I'm directing this at him.
