[QUOTE="iggibar, post: 1822758, member: 97843"] The "Pro" argument when talking prices is ridiculous, especially when you consider EVERY SINGLE Mac Pro previous to this generation has been half the cost, and not had any significant differences compared to the new one. Having PCI slots shouldn't be what deems a Mac to cost 5 GRAND! And the stock 580 GPU is certainly not a reason for it to cost $6k either. LOL!!! I/O are similar to a MacBook Pro 15", so that's can't be the reason. My guess is they want to roll in the cost of expensive glam machining into the price, and that's not something a real "Pro" user gives a crap about. If you truly care about pro grade computing, you would put your money on computing power over the cost of shiny material and fancy handles. That's just ridiculous, and this is coming from someone who currently has 3 Mac Pros! $6,000 is crazy, and I'll bet money sales will paint a better picture.
