New Mac Pro Buyers: What did you order?

[macz1]

Haha, just ordered the stock model. I'm awaiting it impatiently!

I ordered the stock configuration. Should arrive next tuesday. I was really glad to see that apple upgraded also the ram, hard disk and graphics card. It will be an amazing machine to run logic studio.

Well, it's rumored that the top memory board is inserted inverted, so that the top memory and bottom memory are closer together. Perhaps it was a move to decrease heat? That's one pic you can show us.

Another pic would be of the 2600xt in there. And yet another pic could be of the mobo so we can see how it differs from the old model.

** We want pics of the INNARDS, man. INNARDS FTW.

Here's your request. lol

Ordered it today from a local store here in Canada. I got a bit of a deal so I went through them.

Does anyone know how much slower it is if you order it through a 3rd party vendor? Anyone have that experience?

I'll probably see this damn thing sometime in April.

Cool - I looked on newegg and couldn't find 800Mhz modules. Thanks - I might cancel my order and re-order with 2GB to save - I have a month to make up my mind

I cancelled it and re-ordered.

I decided I didn't need the dual CPUs and based on advice from folks on the forum I went with the standard RAM. Thanks for the advice - I'll save about $1500
