Mac Pro - Would it be your choice if money was no object?
As you might have read in the blogs, I recently wrote a post about my 'Kingdom for a Mac Pro'. The machine is slick, powerful...but sadly very expensive.
My Kingdom for a Pimped Out Mac Pro | Mactropolis.com - Your Friendly Global Mac Community What is your take on the Mac Pro? Seems to me it is the ultimate in terms of performance and data storage. You can customize the thing like mad, it has 4 hard drive bays... and the memory options are simply rediculous. One day if money is not an option... Sign me up for a $15,000 Mac Pro (kidding)... Sadly I believe you can customize the bad boy up to well over $20k. I'll have to check on that. If you had your choice... Mac Pro, MacBook Pro, iMac, or MacBook?

like you said if money was no option, if you want to make a high powered rig, then it's best to go for a option that isn't mac, because it's SOOOOOOOO expensive to add stuff.
