Such is the temptation of the Apple...is that why they went with "Apple"? So tempting, one bite and you're world opens up so much you're screwed?

ROFL! Too true :) Never put two and two together, but I know some Maccies that'll find that intensely amusing!!


Wow, a system with two 30" widescreens... that's a drooler alright.

Hmm... *jaunts off to Amazon*

Hey, this may be interesting to you. I'd been told that Amazon sells Mac hardware a bit cheaper than the Apple Store and here's the skinny:

(all prices USD)

Apple Store:
dual 2.5 G
512MB RAM(they wanted $4650 for 8gig ram!!!)
160GB HD
NVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra DDL
Dual 20" displays (lets be reasonable)
Bluetooth
Wireless Keyboard and Mouse
--------
$6225

Amazon.com:
same specs as above, but no bluetooth, wireless keyboard or a way to specify the graphics card
-------
$5593.98


1GB Apple RAM from Kingston x 8
--------
$2079.60 ($259.95 per gig)


So... it doesn't look like Amazon.com would really be too much cheaper after you added in the BlueTooth and wireless peripherals, but damned if you can't save a couple of bucks on the RAM (tgff [thank goodness for froogle]).
