477048 2006-08-08 05:55:00 Yeah, although I choked when I saw the price...

Maybe they will bring out a cheaper model .. something like the successor to the old G4 towers (rather than G5 towers). You know like Core 2 Duos..

At least they put one gig of RAM in. I wonder if the case isn't as heavy.

477049 2006-08-08 05:55:00 How come you never see very high end graphics cards in a mac? I mean, for me to buy a computer, I would want at least 7600GT minimum, and preferably a 7900GT. mejobloggs (264)

Pretty much because the company (Apple) are cheap. Lots of mac users complain about this, but they still insist on doing it. You can throw in your own video card though...

. apple . com/macpro/Not" target="_blank">www . apple . com too bad considering the features . A Dell with the same specs apparently costs almost US$1000 more, and you still have Windows and an ugly case (Source: WWDC Keynote) . :)

Mac OS X 10 . 5 looks great too, but I'm wondering what the top secret features they haven't announced yet are . Trust Steve to leave us wondering . :p
