After you receive it, please test if it will boot with only one FB-DIMM installed.
Inquiring minds want to know.

All I request is that you get plenty of pics, outside and under the hood.

Bluetooth is for: isync - Moto E815 contacts & calendar, & also in the event our ISP is down, I can tether to the Mac for a temp. wireless connection.

If you are not including wireless in your latest computer config then you will not be getting a computer for the future. Bluetooth is fantastic for cell phone address book transfer especially with the Motorola Razor. It's just speculation but Apple is very likely to include bluetooth in future iPods and if you don't get bluetooth installed in your new Mac then you will have to use a clunky dongle.
It may not excite you for whatever reason but one man's trash is another man's treasure.

Would you be willing to buy a cheap PCIe graphics card (PC one) and test it out for us? I'm sure it could be returned when you're done, again, inquiring minds want to know.
