You DO realize you're talking about a mac, right? You'll have to wait at least 8 months before it can go in a NEW mac pro. About a year later, they'll release their own version of this processor to work with the older mac pros like yours, but it will cost 30% more than fair market value.

Sure you'll get:

- A Quad instead of an Extreme processor.
- Dual 9800M GTX instead of Dual 8800M GTX
- And you'll save around 300$

But the Sager notebooks have the worst exterior designs hands down. After a certain level of performance (Dual 8800mGTX SLI + Extreme processor), the outer components mean more to me. Sager could be a bit better on the inside, but it's a LOT uglier on the outside.]]>Sep 16th 2008 2:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/16/intel-launches-six-core-xeon-7400-your-bank-account-shudders/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/16/intel-launches-six-core-xeon-7400-your-bank-account-shudders/

Think about it this way. Say your company needs 200 servers. Would you want to buy 200 * $5000 servers for $1 million, or 5 * $40,000 servers for $200,000?

Now imagine your company needs 5000 windows servers, like mine does.]]>Sep 16th 2008 11:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/16/intel-launches-six-core-xeon-7400-your-bank-account-shudders/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/16/intel-launches-six-core-xeon-7400-your-bank-account-shudders/
This is what intel will do if AMD cant catch up again.
