    Thanks guys...more confirmation gives me peace of mind. As an update, the unthinkable happened...my Mac Pro died. Alas, I sadly had to go buy a current model, as I was dead in the water.


     


    But this is another reason I LOVE APPLE!


     


    I went into the Local Apple Store to pick up my Mac Pro, and was complaining...well whining really, that I had to buy the current model when the new is due in the next few months, and that I had been waiting for years to upgrade. The manager overheard me, came over and told me since I was buying a new system so close to the release, that if I would bring it back within the first week the new ones hit the street, he will swap them out!!!!!!! And since pricing still isn't known, I would only have to pay the difference (if any) between the new system pricing points.


     


    Would any other company do that?

    Frock me! That might be an incentive for some to get a Mac Pro now! Amazing news, thanks for sharing! And happy for you (even though your old one died)

    My 30" ACD is starting to make a humming noise, I suppose I can't ....
