In two weeks... We hope.
Hehe thats what people where saying months ago....Don't get me wrong though I hope so too!!
Forgive me if this has been asked before, and i'm sure it was but I read dozens of pages of this thread and couldnt find it...
Looking at the CPU chart on here, would you guys agree that likely they will start the 2.66(harpertown) as the base, 2.8 for the middle and 3.16 for the top dog?? Also hoping for 2GB, I mean the mac mini has 1GB now
Also stupid question...with say the dual 3ghz, would that be like 6ghz or are the more like 1.5ghz each??
Maxed at 3.2ghz I believe. And I think we are all hoping for it to come with at least 2x1GB.
My biggest worry is on my applications then what ships with Leopard.
My only significant one is Parallels. Otherwise my applications are just drag and drop.
That's right.
It's now just giving developers time to play catch up since Apple released Leopard final just before the actual launch.
As long as Final Cut Studio 2 and Adobe products work, I'm all set. (And they already do.)
Now that I think of it, buddy I work with is picking up a MacPro today at the Apple Store for the business, foolish, I know, he doesn't want to listen to me. Anyway, it comes with Leopard. I get to test it out next week. Gonna install it on my MacBook. Ooooooo, can't wait.
I assume that he's buying a copy of 10.5 for you?
Not only would it be stealing to use his copy to upgrade your MacBook, but it probably won't work. (See https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/375500/)
Nah, drop in DVD.
Didn't have an issue with iLife 08 Drop In DVD. I guess we will just have to see.
Cool, I didn't notice the 3.2ghz
What happened to MM? I saw his avatar said banned???
Also any chance you guys think the 3.0ghz will be the mid model??....I sure hope so!

Depends whether or not the original owner intended to use it on his Mac Pro or not. It comes with Tiger preinstalled already, so if he opts not to use it, it is legal.
It depends on the T&C's for the drop-in DVD.
If the wording is that it is bound to the new Mac, then it wouldn't be OK to "transfer" a non-transferable license.
Ok, now that MM has disappeared. We need to keep this thread alive until the new MacPro comes out.
I think he may be buried in the fallout from his archive and installs. I was.
Why did he get banned?
On topic, do people still feel hopeful that a release is coming in November?
I'm very confident that Mac Pros will be released in the next three weeks.
Definitely curious why Multimedia was banned.
Yeah, me too.
I also noticed that suneohair is in "time out". I wonder what I missed?
I am really hoping that there is a MacPro announcement this Tuesday for a release 11/13. It's odd that Apple would fall behind on updating the spec site on the MacPro leaving it at Tiger and not putting it as Leopard like all the other hardware specs.
