I ordered a Mac Pro, Dual Quad Core 2.8 with 2gb RAM and the nVidia 8800GT today from the Apple Store.
Just kiddin, Erick. I ordered it via The Beaverton Mac Store, got my PMUG discount (5% for you PMUG members!), and also picked up AppleCare for my MacBook Pro.
I’ll add more RAM and drives later. I see crucial just started shipping Mac Pro 2008 RAM.
This machine will be a server, play WoW really well and let me free up my overworked laptop some.
All of my music and videos will go to the Pro. I’ll take boot camp off the laptop and move Windows to a VMWare image on my external 100gb drive when I need that. That alone will free up 48gb of space.
I’ll put boot camp on the pro on a second drive, so it can be fully dedicated if I ever need that, but since the Pro will be our Apple TV synced machine, that will limit how much time I can spend in Windows 🙂
Not sure when it’ll arrive. Should be super duper fast though 🙂
