here is the computer that I have available - it is BRAND NEW - I have never even turned it on.

this comes with full reciept and is eligable for applecare, just picked up today.

ATI video card shot

back view to show 2 firewire 800 ports and dvi with 2 mini dvi video outs.

I took a side view pic but it was mostly reflection from the flash so I just used these 2 to verify the model and parts.


I took my 2006 macpro xeon in for repair and they said they needed to replace the logic board, it was going to be about $775 for the repair.

then they called me back and said the computer was unable to be repaired at all.

apparently upon initial assembly some screws deep inside the mother board were stripped upon instalation, when they got that deep into the computer they realized there was an actual manufacturing defect in the maschine and they could not repair it, so they gave me a full replacement maschine.

I was going to sell the other one after I got it repaired and put the profit/difference towards a car.

this is so much better!

$2300obo - it does not have applecare now, but it would be $249 to add apple care to it.

$2499.99 + tax (Ca 8.25%) = 2705.16

$2300 cash is $405.16 savings so I feel $2300 is a fair price.

SF bay area until the 5th of Oct.

then I go back down to L.A.

this comes with reciept, 1 year standard warranty and paperwork but no box.

bumped to add that there is another 500GB HD and 2 expansion cards with this.

1 card adds 4 usb ports and the other adds 2 usb & 2 firewire.

price reduced to $2200

you dont seem to mention cpu speed, number of cores, how much ram, hdd, what video card, etc. Might have more luck if you mention that kind of stuff

sorry, I thought I had added this link in the first post.
