Refurb Mac Pros back on the Apple Store

What a buddy noticed was the pricing on the monitors - $1500 for the 30-inch? That's, um... BETTER than I would have thought they'd have gone. (As in, "HULLY GEEZE THAT'S CHEAP!")

If anyone is watching for a specific piece of hardware to show up in the refurbished section of the apple store I created a page that will let you create an rss feed so you can see when it shows up.

PS: in the (later) days of the beige G3, through the Blue & White G3, and the G4 and G5 eras, there was (almost) always a ~$1499-1599 entry-level PowerMac. The introduction of the Mac Pro was the first time in many years that there was no sub-$2000 option available. iMacs are nice, but some people DON'T want an integrated display, dammit! And the Mac minis are nice (I have three) but they're a little underpowered.

Diddy--nope, there are no BTO options for refurbished gear--not even extra RAM. And I hope that Steve DOES rev the damn things in January--they haven't been meaningfully revised since they were introduced a year and a half ago! (Adding one top-end option does not count as "meaningful.") The prices haven't come down any either, and in fact the $2199 price for the refurb $2499 model is the same as it was over a year ago.

You know what I really want to see happen? I want Steve to take the stage next month and say "We've had a busy year. We shipped the iPhone, we revised the entire iPod line, we released iWork 08, iLife 08, and Mac OS X 10.5. Today is all about the Mac."

I have wanted to buy a refurb, but the only thing stopping me is it the lack of airport and bluetooth. Will Apple add these if you request it?
