Apple needs to drop the Xeon's - very, very few people need server CPUs in their desktop. That would help them drop the price.
The server motherboards are about 5% slower for the same clock speed, and they take more expensive RAM.
I agree exactly with these two statements. The more expensive RAM part is the ECC stuff. Is that RAM and CPU type combo really necessary in the Mac Pro? That's a serious question...
