Just noticed and was going to post here, but you beat me to it.

These are nice prices.

If you click on the Octo 2.26Ghz link and select picture #4 you'll notice that it shows TWO CPU/memory trays.

Pretty sure it's a mistake but 16 cores anyone?

The 2.66s on the UK refurb store could very well be one of my old replacement ones 😛

I think that's supposed to show the sliding out effect.

They only have the 'Harpertown' and the spec isn't all that, by the time you've upgraded, you may as well bought a new one, imho....

Do refurbs usually have scratches on them? Where do the refurbs come from anyway? Apple Stores that don't need them anymore?
