Mac Pro Update - 2008/01/08 21:53 Well, the mac pro's have been updated, with Penryn (well Yorkfield) CPU's at a max of 3.2Ghz. Now with an option to ship with the full 32GB of RAM.

That aside, although pretty important, for those top end gamers Apple now supports the 8800 GT and for the designers the Quadro FX 5600.

Good times

Re:Mac Pro Update - 2008/01/09 20:07 Nope, as my order states:

Two 3.2GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
8GB (4x2G
NVIDIA Quadro FX 5600 1.5GB
1TB 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb/
1TB 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb
One 16x SuperDrive
AIRPORT EXTREME-INT
APPLE MIGHTY MOUSE
WIRED KEYBD/MAC OS X-GBR.

And a 30" monitor.

The Mac Pro has been able to go up to 32GB for quite some time now, just apple never sold the 4GB chips, but now they are.

Re:Mac Pro Update - 2008/01/09 22:39 John,

Thanks for your praise, means a lot to me, considering I've never been part of a podcast before.

Well, brand spanking new machine, that's big and nasty - I invariably want to shout that I have it from the rooftops. So if Nick/Nicky well let me outshadow (Not so much in spec, but certainly in sheer size) their Macbook Pro/iMac (Hey guys, want me back still?? ) then I would like it on the show.

And yeah... IT Idiots Production studios... good tea service
