Wow - we have always paid well over $5k for our Mac Pros - usually closer to=
 $6k, so only the middle range duals. A few are decked out, high end which w=
ere closer to $10k. We can get a lot more workstation for the same money. Th=
e new Mac Pro may not be enough oomf for our growing needs for performance. I=
'll hold final judgement until I see them in the field. Are they going blow o=
ut the last stock for new, er, legacy systems? We could use more of those.=20=


Ciao ya'll
