Listers,

A client is looking to pick up a couple of the new Mac Pros and they =
asked me to help with the best specs for CS6 Raytracer.

I know we touched on this a while back -  what is the best, as in =
fastest, budget is not an issue, GPU set-up for the Mac + WIN

As I understood it, the NVIDIA Quadro 6000 combo Tesla is pretty much =
top of the heap on WIN... correct?

What gets closest (fastest) on the Mac?

Cheers,
Chris
