Pystar's new i7 clone.

So after coming back from bankruptcy, they're selling a Nehalem based clone called "Open(7)" ... when I configured it similarly to my Mac Pro (Quad-2.6) it was about $1900... there is no octo config available.

FYI, my "similar configured" quad was about $2500.

Really? Didn't they just emerge from bankruptcy yesterday?


...edit... ah, I see it was in the news section noon today. (https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/737957/)

But my price comparison still stands. lol.

Jeez, the world is moving pretty fast when news from 12 hours ago is old!

...but the front page wasn't me comparing price to my Mac Pro for a chat.

No, it's just dozens of people comparing it to the price of the Mac Pro and finding the Mac Pro to be better value in the long run for actual work.

Eh, I only mainly pay attention to the Mac Pro forum. (and maybe a bit of the gallery forum for fun) There's way to much going on overall...
