You gotta pay the price to work on a superior computer. (sorry!!)

Wow, you said that with a straight face, well done.

> You gotta pay the price to work on a superior computer. (sorry!!)
Yes, if superior computer means a computer with a superior price tag.
Anyways, with the lack of Autodesk software (and many many others) and many games on this superior computer then, this update can be considered more a caprice rather a real needing.

@Magallanes:
Ever heard of Boot Camp?

If you have to run Windows, why bother owning a Mac?
OS X is great and all (and it is, that wasn't irony), but if your software doesn't support it, you may as well buy a Windows or Linux machine and be able to use the latest hardware instead of waiting for Apple or NVidia to release Mac compatible stuff.
That is, after all, the entire point of owning a regular PC and why we don't like having all our hardware coming from a single source.

spec out a Mac Pro and a Dell with similar cpus etc and you'll find the Dell actually more pricey..
kyoseki @ Apr 15th 2008 9:07PM
I wouldn't buy a Dell either :)
The Mac Pro is actually the exception to the Mac rule, it is competitively priced because they score a hell of a deal on the processors, but you can scratch build a machine for a bit less.
The truth however is that a lot of people want the performance of the iMacs in an upgradeable tower, I have a PC that's at least as fast as the top of the line iMac but costs over a grand less and is built just as well, if not better, than any of them.
