you know they never did a dual 3ghz mac pro, it was always a quad. and now you can get 8 core mac pro.

well to clarify this is the newest mac pro the octo mac for a great price. I just figured this info would help someone save money.

Buying a refurb from apple is a great idea, and will definatly save you money, plus you still get a full warranty with it so its basicly like buying a new mac.

But, your original post clearly states that that is a quad core mac pro, not an octo core mac pro.

"Two 3.0GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon processors"

From the specs you posted above this is a quad core machine...what am I missing here?

[Jeff Kilgroe]

A few confusing posts in this thread... The system is still there. It's a quad-core (two dual-core CPUs @ 3GHz).

LighthouseMEdia, you're not missing a thing.

[Nik Manning]

Okay well to clarify you can get this which is a dual Quad-Core. The refurb below is dual Dual-core with 2gb memory and upgraded graphics card x1900. I wa confused.:bye2:

Hopefully this clears it up. :)

so... I pay only $700 more and I get four more processors?

by the way, I can get a better price for a dual quad mac then that...

[LighthouseMEdia]

No you are showing two different systems:
In the top ad they list 2 Quad core CPUS
Second ad is for a system with 2 Dual core CPUS...the refurb unit is NOT An 8 CORE system it is only a quad.
