Apple Mac Pro Desktop Computer Ratings and Reviews
Out of the Box
We took delivery of a 2.0 Ghz system -- the logic being that the $300 saving here (over the standard 2.66 GHz configuration) could be put toward the better ATi X1900 video card. But more on that later.
The fundamental difference with this machine is, of course, the new Xeon 5100 processors. These are dual-core designs, meaning that they have two processor cores per chip. Apple shoehorns two of these into the Mac Pro for a total of four processor cores per machine. Each processor has 4MB of shared cache (you can feel your renders speeding up already, can't you?) and each one sits...

The Mac Pro (Early 2008) machine I have is quad-core (downgraded from the standard 8 core beast). Purchased two months old off of eBay, this machine has been flawless.

It is so easy to use. When my husband brought it home I was scared but now I prefer it to my work PC. I use it for email. And I also use it to fix and edit my photos. I took a mac class and the people who work at the apple store don't treat you like an idiot if you go in and ask a question!
I LOVE my mac!!! I use to have a pc, but when I went off to college, I got a mac, and I have to say i won't go back. Mac is soo much better than pc's, nothing ever goes wrong with it, I have no complaints, and everything is so simple!
The Apple Mac Pro Desktop Computer is so technologically advanced. If you love technology then you must get this!
