[QUOTE="bryphotoguy, post: 579972, member: 26695"] First, the Mac Pro was release on the 8th, just over 2 weeks ago. I know nothing about computer gaming. I wanted to see if you could find some facts to back your argument that "Gamers out rank any other type of user in the Market." That's all. :) Personally, I couldn't justify purchasing a $2000 computer to play a video game. My PS3 works just fine at a fraction of the cost. Nor do I care at the moment to go back to the Windows environment. The Penryn chip was not designed for gaming. It is simply the next step to make a faster processor that runs cooler and draws less power. If Apple was to built a gaming rig, how much of the 1.4 billion spent on video games would they see? None seeing Apple doesn't design games nor would they if they were to design a gaming rig. If building gaming rigs was such a great market, one would think Apple would be all over that side of the market. I think Apple has made it quite clear they're not interested in the gaming market, so until you're the "CEO of Mac", I would suggest buying a PC to play computer games. As for the rest of what you said, I couldn't finish reading. Please work on your grammar and sentence structure. You're not going to get much help around here. It's difficult to read what you wrote because of the run-ons, fragments, etc.... [/QUOTE]
