I've never laughed so hard. I can't name anything that Macs would use to need an NVidia graphics card or 16GB RAM.

Yeah, I'm a shithead because I don't use a Mac and I don't use programs built for Macs.

Makes loads of sense.

Ok, we've established that I posted general crap and that I don't know shit about Macs.

Moving on.

Yes, you're a shithead for insinuating nobody uses a Mac and Macs can't do anything. It seems like everyone would know by now nearly every film studio uses Macs for their 3D animation and all that other good shit.

I just want to know why anyone would pay that much for a computer...

If you're making movies, you'll earn it all back rather quickly.

But leave all that for the movie makers. Normal people won't use a lot of time with it.

If you manually bought all the parts off sites like Newegg, you would save a pretty good amount of money.

That's why normal consumers don't buy a computer that costs as much as a decent car.

Most likely.

Though, I couldn't find the quad-core Xeons the Pro can have.
Did a little looking, though, and found a pretty good 750GB drive for about $260, compared to the $500 to add one to the Mac Pro.

What a coincidence, most films suck. And I really really highly hugely doubt that is correct, 2% of all computer users are Macfags

It's about 8% of consumers, and the number is rising.

Look at any movie or commercial, and you're bound to see a Mac.
