    One thing missing is the speed(lanes) of the other PCIe slots. Anyone pick up on that?

    Look like really nice workstations.

    According to the specs, the bandwith of the slots is user adjustable.

    [Steve Eisen] “Mac Pro ships TODAY!”

    I just congfigured a system in the Apple Store with the dual 3 Ghz processors and it says 5-8 weeks so obviously only the 2.6’s are ready to actually ship today.

    Why limit yourself to just two SLI cards. Try this on for size 🙂

    ooops, just noticed it is XP only. But with the MacPro’s running XEON processors, it will probably be offered as a Mac option soon….just guessing.
