Well, onlooker, I did it. i ordered one with the 8800. Wont ship until Feb according to Apple, but I'm hoping for an earlier date. If they come out with new ACDs next week then I will just order them separately, it's all free shipping anyway. Che…

Screw it. I ordered one with the 8800 and no other options. I will get more RAM and a 500GB HD from OWC when they update their site with the new RAM chips. Only downside is I have to wait until February for it to ship because of the bloody NVidi…

YES! YES! YES! Finally! Now I will wait until MacWorld only to see if there will be new displays, but I will be ordering a new Mac Pro within 8 days. Thank you Apple for making me a poorer and happier man. And on a more sober note: Should w…
