Hi there. Didn't know Apple sold refurb macs. I'll take a look but not sure I want a used one but it's worth looking at. I guess I'm still thinking about saving and getting the pro; not the $22000 one, but the $3000 one. lol I know, I'm crazy. smile

Hi Sara,I saw some referb iMacs at Apple.com for around a thousand dollars with a GIG of ram, 2 GIG clock speed and a 250 GIG drive and a super drive. We have a couple of these and they are more than enough. They are 20 inch models.Keith Reedy On Apr 23, 2008, at 11:30 PM, Sara wrote:Thanks for that. I did the same thing one day and now I don't feel so weird knowing others do the same...building expensive computers and never really buying them. I also put in 4tb hard drives lol. I love the idea of 32 gigs of ram but yeah, I bet the mac could use that. I mean, if I suddenly could see, lol, I'd be editing videos. lolSara----- Original Message ----- From: "David Truong" <bnfiles@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <macvoiceover@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, April 23, 2008 10:13 PM Subject: [macvoiceover] Re: Oh no, I fell in love with a mac pro!HI,So did I at this online Aussie apple store. I built what I wanted to have in my Mac pro and it came to 22 thousand bucks. But then I really pushed the envelope smile. I tell you what, it was fun building and dreaming of it though. Just that processing power along with 32 GB of ram. Could the Mac really handle 32GB of ram? I mean can it take advantage of it? I put 2 3.2 quad processors in there along with 4 1tb drives and 32GB ram as well as other stuff. If I get a Mac pro, no doubt I'll be a bit more realistic than I was today. I couldn't justify to myself spending 22 grand on a computersmile.

Went to the store and loved the pro. lolI touched it and was like "wow, a big mac"! We got a good laugh about the mcdonalds hamburger but of course the mac pro is anything but fast foodcomputing. lol At $3000 it sure looks good. I love that aluminium case! It purrs too, kind of like a leopard I guess? lol I got a very '80s feeling from looking at it. I know it's 2008, but I can't stop thinking about our apple2e...128k of ram, yeah... Hardware that is built to last decades instead of 90 days, that's the feeling I got from that mac.The salesman told me that my pc microphone won't work on a mac. All very techie-techie sounding about signals and power, not sure if he was wrongornot...but I hope he was wrong because I'm not spending even more dollarson a mic. lol Does the pro have a mic built-in?Garage band was cool. I didn't buy the thing though, decided to do moreresearch first and not buy it just because it gives me that nice '80s feeling. It reminds me of my childhood and how back then, I wanted new toys at any price. Now I'm 27 and it's 2008 and I'll do more research firstbefore I buy that quote "big mac" end quote.
