Guess the base price of the top-end MP here. Winner gets glory.

Ladies and gentlemen,
Speculation about the base price of the top-end 8-core MP has been rampant. This thread is the official place to guess for glory. Closest NNer wins praise and esteem from all of us, and a future as a highly paid actuary. Without BTO options or anything else, just the base machine, the standard RAM, HD, vid card... no display, no Applecare... naked...
My guess: $4999.

I don't care what the base price is. I just want the new Mac Pro to come out before my ADC discount expires.

Once you wanted revolution, now you're the institution, how's it feel to be the man?

You could still play along and take a guess.

Depends if Apple goes with the new X5482 or if they settle for the cheaper and lower power X5472. If they go for the X5482 I'd say $4299. If not it'll be $3999.

I have to believe its the 3.2 for their flagship, or even a secret special edition 3.3 version exclusive to Apple. The hardcore users who will buy a maxed octo will pay for the best. With the 3.2 processors being so expensive, can they really make enough at $4299? Let's hope!
