MSNBC: Mac Pro is the ultimate desktop

MSNBC's Gary Krakow got his journalistic hands on a Mac Pro, and it is safe to say that he was impressed. Why else would he proclaim it the 'ultimate desktop'? Krakow appreciates the use of real metal in the Mac Pro's case (though the case is largely unchanged from the PowerMac G5, metal and all) and the sexy design (if it ain't broke, I suppose) of the case both inside and out.

After going over all the specs of the machine, and mentioning that if you get two optical drives you can either read from one and write to the other directly, or write to both at the same time (which is kinda cool) he falls head over heels for the Intel chips in this monster. Finally, he also does the obligatory, 'Go to Apple.com and configure the most expensive Mac Pro possible,' which comes to about $12,000.
