In fairness though, with the extra spare £260, you could probably get a better sound card...

Marvin...hehe, I love it! it can go on and on can't it!

For home/gaming I agree your 100% completely correct...that PC is better is better than that mac! Totally agree...value for money, and spec, everything!

But I wonder if maybe the imac would be a better direct comparison to that PC as it is also i5 based, and for that money could have 1Tb HDD, 8gb ram and a 27" display?

The mac pro components and it's entire architecture, if you look into it in more detail...are all professional and specialist level choices, and are better for other/different jobs because they work differently...I'd imagine mac pro's mostly live within certain businesses...and with very wealthy people!!!

I hope mac never become as popular as PC's, they'd suffer the same problems then too!

this old PC/Mac argument makes me giggle. Unless your gaming, then your basic PC from Tesco is good enough for your needs, no point thinking about a Mac, as it is too expensive.

If you require stability and the abilities of a mac, buy a mac, if you want to play games and have a wealth os software, buy a Windows based PC, home server, Linux is great. The answer of which is better, is never simple, and far to many factors involved.
