1699pound should be the price, it come close to RM12k.

I was referring to the quad core.
The screenshot did mention quad core...

As expected, the 8-core Macpro is now in Apple Store. Also as expected by me, it's available in customise option, not complete replacement over quad-cores.

I thought you are eager to the 8-cores? It's out now and you say it's expensive pula.
You should have know it wont be "cheap".

I don't think they will "keep stock" in KL. Just make your deposit/order and wait for it to arrive. That's how you get ur customised MacPro in Malaysia.

In bold are extra from standard package:
Refurbished Mac Pro Quad 3.0GHz
2GB (4 x 512MB) 667MHz DDR2 fully-buffered DIMM ECC
250GB Serial ATA 3Gb/s 7200-rpm hard drive
16x SuperDrive (double-layer)
ATI Radeon X1900 XT graphics with 512MB memory

New MacPro 8-Core 3.0GHz
1GB (4 x 512MB) 667MHz DDR2 fully-buffered DIMM ECC
250GB Serial ATA 3Gb/s 7200-rpm hard drive
16x SuperDrive (double-layer)
nVidia 7300GT graphics with 256MB memory

Ofcourse you can customise other configuration for the new 8-core, just tell your supplier to quote you what you wanted. Like more RAM, X1900XT GPU, bluetooth & Airport, and etc.

I suggest you do some research.
nVidia 7300GT is the standard GPU that ship with MacPro unless you pay extra to upgrade to X1900XT.

well the 8-core chips it's using is not even in the market yet.
taking the price of dual core 3.0Ghz Xeon 5160 is already RM3800 (check c-zone pricelist). Two of them already RM7k+ for the proc alone. Go figure how much value does Macpro actually worth before you compliant its expensive.

neither im filty rich. but i work hard so i earned it back in time.
