$1000+ for a dual 2.0GHz model?? You guys must be joking right? I've seen QUAD core models selling under $1000 since BEFORE 10.6 came out. Just this past summer I watched a quad 2.5GHz system with 4Gb of RAM sell for $750. A 2.0GHz model (dual core or DP) is worth maybe $450-$500 on a good day. Yes there's a TON of RAM in there, but its the still just 2.0GHz and out of Applecare. Anyone with $1000+ to spend on a Mac can get a new iMac that will smoke the G5, and it includes a screen. Sorry if I come off as rude, but the G5 got screwed as far as resale value is concerned.
