Apple’s new Mac Pro is a beast, by far the most powerful computer that the company has ever released, especially when all of the hardware is upgraded. As powerful as it is, many people are dissuaded by the massive price tag which can range from $3000 to $10,000 depending on how which components you choose. Is this massive price tag simply because of Apple’s “premium” image? Would a similar machine running Windows be cheaper? That’s what Stephen Fung tried to find out.
