All Mac Pros assembled in USA?

My 1,1 and now my 4,1 2.26 octo say "Assembled in USA"

No, I don't think so. In Europe we got stuff from Ireland but there is also assembly going on in China.

No, not really.

Base models tend to be assembled in China, particularly for the US market. The BTO's are assembled in the US (North American orders). For Europe, it seems the Ireland facility is only doing the BTO's as of late, and the base models are also assembled in China.

So most of the production is in China, not the US, Europe,.... It's the BTO's that seem to separate the systems these days as per the assembly point.
