At long last, Apple’s
high-end Intel-based Mac desktop is out in the world. In its standard configuration, the Mac Pro comes packed with a lot of power and costs a pretty penny— $2,499— but it’s certainly a step in the direction many Mac game enthusiasts were hoping for. Here’s how it rounds up from a gamer’s perspective.
On the outside, the Mac Pro is physically similar to the Power Mac G5 that it replaces. More ports on the front, dual optical drive trays, and entirely new guts within, but it’s a Mac, no question. What’s odd is that I’ve been seeing copycat case vendors with very similar-looking PC clone cases lately—so there’s clearly some crossover appeal to PC gamers looking for a muscular look.
