Our office was reviewing pricing and specs. They are WAY over priced for what you get. A single machine was coming in at 7-10k for anything worth while for production work. We are sticking with our current macs for now, with plans on moving to PC possibly. 10k for PC can at least get us a monster machine, not just a tiny shiny one.

   Hi all,

       I'm planning on doing an upgrade next year and I'm wondering if I should even think of getting a Mac Pro. I do the usual AE and 3D stuff most folks do here and when you put up the performance levels at least on a macintosh basis, a maxed out iMac seems to perform pretty favorably compared to CUBEtwo the sequel (I kinda miss that old clear plastic box) as well as including a really nice retina monitor. Is anyone planning on getting a pro and why do you want that over something else?

       -Rob
