Peter Oppenheimer (Apple’s Chief Financial Officer) recently noted that iMacs dominate Apple’s desktop computer sales. That makes sense, because the iMac is an awesome machine with more than enough power for most computing needs. The iMac is fully capable of running all popular pro applications.
However, some of us continue to require the extra horsepower, configuration options, and internal storage of a Mac Pro. Here at Small Dog, we ship a fairly large number of Mac Pros (though iMacs outsell them by a wide margin).
We’ve found that most customers prefer to buy a Mac Pro bundle – outfitted with RAM and at least one additional drive. We install and test these components. RAM has a 10-year warranty.
The most popular Mac Pro bundle we’ve recently offered features two 2.8GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon processors, 10GB RAM, the stock 320GB SATA drive with an additional 1TB SATA drive, and the 3-year AppleCare plan. This has free shipping, and as always, no sales tax on orders that ship out of Vermont.
We’re offering this machine for $3,389.99. Apple is offering the same machine for $4,848 (and Apple’s configuration actually has less RAM, only 8GB.)
