|

The Apple Referb. Store has two 3.33 GHz Mac Pro's
on sale for the same price. One is a Quad Core and
the other is a HEX Core. Common sense would dictate
the Hex is the way to go. Why are they the same price?
What have I missed. I'm guessing the Quad must be
maxed out with HD's and software and such though it
looks like it has an older Graphics Card. What do y'all
think? _________________ 2011 Mac mini 2.7 GHz i7 with

Dunno why the price parity. The hex is 2010 and the quad is 2009, I'd go with the hex...but it is OOS. _________________ 2.0 GHz i7 Mini 8 GB RAM, OWC Merc Extreme SSD & Samsung Spinpoint

Thats what I thought. Last year I came close to
buying a Quad Core buy couldn't quite afford it.
Because I waited till this year I think I'll be able
to swing a Hex Core. If thats what happens I
may get a bit depressed for not buying a 2010
or 2011 Alumini. _________________ 2011 Mac mini 2.7 GHz i7 with
