"The recently released Mac Pro maintains the Apple shine in design,
usability and software but also does something unexpected: It turns
the old Mac versus Windows PC price equation on its head.
A low-end Mac Pro will cost you $2,124 compared with $3,071 for a
nearly identically configured Dell Precision Workstation 490. The Mac
is about $947 cheaper — and the gap widens when you start piling on
options such as more memory, faster processors and bigger hard drives."
