At Fry's Electronics in my area there is a 2.66GHz Nehalem Mac Pro with 3GB RAM, 640GB HD, and I am assuming a GeForce 120 or something like that. Is this a stellar deal? Or do you think I should shoot to do a little better than that for a refurb?

you can buy a new one from B&H for $1899 w/Parallels, or an Apple refurb 2010 for $2119+tax.

No that's not a stellar deal at all.

Same model, brand new, $1,643.36, no tax, free shipping:

The 2009 has been $1799 on Amazon for a while now, through a third party company. That's not a terrible deal.

Ok, I was getting a little confused with the models. It isn't as great as I thought. Thank you for the information.
