$1000 off a Mac Pro 8 Core "Westmere"

[ka jowct]

If I were in the market now, I'd be thrilled with that price. I paid more than that for my quad core 3.2 refurb in January 2011.

The refurb 8-core is $2649 in the Apple Store.

Note that it can run Snow Leopard, which is a big plus for some of us.
