How do you think I did on this deal??? G5 options 4 DP

Post by tdm71 »

Just purchased a Brand New (stock) DP 2.5 w/ 3 yr applecare for $2030 to my door. I was heavily considering the new DC2.3 which I can get with edu discount for about $2290 (w/o the apple care plan) delivered so that option was very attractive too. In the end I went for the DP because it is still able it run Panther as some of my apps are not too stable in Tiger yet.

Any thoughts on whether I made a mistake with the 2.5 instead of the newer 2.3 for a few more coin???

I think that sometimes seeing DP, in this case dual processor, can be confusing to some. I don't know if that's what confused the guy but maybe.

I knew what you meant but for a split second my brain went DP means Digital Performer.

Sorry but it seemed like gobbledygook to me - just asking! Or am I not supposed to post if I don't understand something?

I think that's a good price. The dual 2.0 is going for $1999, so I think you did well in comparison.
