Lenovo is helping to lead the industry in using recycled materials with both workstations using 50 percent recycled content. In the ThinkStation D20 workstation, nearly 30 percent of the recycled content comes from post consumer recycled content, which is equivalent to the weight of approximately 19 plastic drinking water bottles. Lenovo also tested the workstations to be GREENGUARD certified, meaning they meet standards for more than 2,000 chemical tests.

But you have to take into account the fact that Lenovo is obviously getting the Tesla C1060 for a lot less than that, given that they're getting them in bulk. Still, that is an amazing price for that kind of computing power. (And I'm referring here to the Lenovo computers that come loaded with the Tesla GPU, though come to think of it, the GPU by itself offers amazing power for the price as well, at least if NVIDIA's marketing claims are to be believed.)]]>Mar 24th 2009 12:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/24/lenovo-thinkstation-s20-d20-sport-new-xeon-cpus-tesla-c1060-g/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/24/lenovo-thinkstation-s20-d20-sport-new-xeon-cpus-tesla-c1060-g/Mar 24th 2009 1:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/24/lenovo-thinkstation-s20-d20-sport-new-xeon-cpus-tesla-c1060-g/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/24/lenovo-thinkstation-s20-d20-sport-new-xeon-cpus-tesla-c1060-g/i personally prefer the core i7s over the xeons.]]>Mar 24th 2009 12:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/24/lenovo-thinkstation-s20-d20-sport-new-xeon-cpus-tesla-c1060-g/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/24/lenovo-thinkstation-s20-d20-sport-new-xeon-cpus-tesla-c1060-g/Mar 24th 2009 12:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/24/lenovo-thinkstation-s20-d20-sport-new-xeon-cpus-tesla-c1060-g/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/24/lenovo-thinkstation-s20-d20-sport-new-xeon-cpus-tesla-c1060-g/Mar 24th 2009 2:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/24/lenovo-thinkstation-s20-d20-sport-new-xeon-cpus-tesla-c1060-g/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/24/lenovo-thinkstation-s20-d20-sport-new-xeon-cpus-tesla-c1060-g/Mar 24th 2009 1:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/24/lenovo-thinkstation-s20-d20-sport-new-xeon-cpus-tesla-c1060-g/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/24/lenovo-thinkstation-s20-d20-sport-new-xeon-cpus-tesla-c1060-g/

When you get up into Mac Pro performance, you're probably talking pretty close to Mac Pro price.

The Lenovo will work out close to what the Mac Pro costs once you upgrade parts so they're comparable. The advertised price is low because the parts are the lower end parts. Once they have these on their website ready for customization, the price will increase quickly as you swap out crap for the goods. :) ]]>Mar 24th 2009 8:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/24/lenovo-thinkstation-s20-d20-sport-new-xeon-cpus-tesla-c1060-g/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/24/lenovo-thinkstation-s20-d20-sport-new-xeon-cpus-tesla-c1060-g/Mar 24th 2009 9:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/24/lenovo-thinkstation-s20-d20-sport-new-xeon-cpus-tesla-c1060-g/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/24/lenovo-thinkstation-s20-d20-sport-new-xeon-cpus-tesla-c1060-g/

By the way, the old Mac Pro's became popular for a reason... they were $1000 less than a comparable system from Dell, HP, IBM, Boxx, you name it. It is the reason many people bought the Mac Pro and used Bootcamp on it. I know, I priced them out myself at the time, 2006.

If it makes you feel any better, I'll be building my own PC workstation soon, based on Windows.
