[G4] More CPU for G4 450.

[Kunga]

Bravo Roger. I too recently bought a refurbished dual 867 MDD two 
months ago for $1319. And I found myself buying a new dual 1.25 MDD 
(w/2MB L3 cache on each processor and that boots 9) Tuesday morning for 
$1599.

Why?

Well it was less than $300 more than I paid for the dual 867 and I 
figured it's worth having now instead of waiting months for the G5 when 
I can just wait a few more for a refurbished dual 2 GHz G5 next year.

Yes the dual 867 MDD is no slouch. I think I will be very happy with 
the dual 1.25 MDD as I am with this one. Just wanted to have the last 
of a dying breed of the most powerful G4 that boots 9 in my stable.

As for PowerLogix. I think they are pretty much sucking wind at this 
point. For Cube owners (me too) it's a bit more complicated. But I 
agree with you the price still needs to be lower. I think a 1.4 GHz for 
$399 might be right. i guess it's up to Motorola as to how soon they 
will lower their prices to third parties.
