I want a new six-core MacPro with the dual D700 video and 64Gb of 1866MHz ECC RAM. I can live with the low-end PCI-E Flash storage for now. Priced this out at about $5700 after tax.

No, I don't care about the premium price. Don't even bother trying to convince me that I can get a lot more Chevrolet for my money than I can buying a Porsche Carrera-Turbo: Yes, I am well aware that you can tinker-build an unreliable bitchin' Camaro in your garage that'll do 10 seconds in the quarter mile for a fraction of the price of a Porsche 997 GT2, but anyone with a brain knows that the Porsche supercar will be the far nicer car to own and drive in every way imaginable.
