![]() But if want the same warranty (Apple default is 1 year, Dell 3) you need to add $250 to the Mac, but it's still $250 less. When I configured a Mac Pro and Dell Precision 690 as closely as possible (need to find the link that lets you build system without monitor and use Woodcrests, dealmac has it), using the lower end 2.0 GHz (since that's good enough for me), I came out with about $2500 for the Mac and almost $3000 for the Dell. Also make sure to select TWO processors (click the drop down for Second Processor). The 51xx are the Woodcrest models which are used in the MacPro, and they cost more than the older ones but are more powerful and more efficient. ![]() Make sure you are selecting the newer 51xx Xeons, and not the 50xx ones. I do not condone buying dell, as i have had dell machines in the past, but to say that a mac is cheaper is just lying. the "comparable" dell machine aslo comes with 2GB ram, a 20" widescreen lcd monitor and a 650GB hd, a huge amount of savings.
