"Plus, on my PC I have a Blu-ray burner, two DVD burners, and two external hard drive bays. Something else you can't really do with a Mac Pro, but that comes in handy on a regular basis."

seriously, i thought this was a pros and cons thread about FCP-X
you all have turned it into a Mac vs PC war.

oddly though Gary, I've had a Blu-ray burner hooked up to my Mac Pro (2006 1.1) model for more than a year already. I also have 2 internal dvd-burners, mostly because i refuse to get rid of the old, replaced one, so i just put them into the open bays I have. I have 4 sata drives internally, and I added a PCI-E sata card to get external drives hooked up.

To top this off, I have 2 graphics card running in my machine to run Davinci Resolve. (and I don't get driver conflicts like most PCs would).
Oh, and here's a great one that PC cannot claim, I can run Windows 7, just as well on my Mac as I can run Mac OS X, (or even Linux), and it IS supported by Apple.
So that means for the investment of a mac pro, i get the best of all three worlds, and in my field, that means a lot.

oh, and btw, while all these price comparison are being thrown around, esp about how expensive things are at Apple, who the hell ever buys RAM form Dell or HP?
