Even Siracusa admits that - he's found it hard to articulate what a true "Mac Pro" would do that you can't do with other things.
Back in the heyday of the $100k Mac Pro you could certainly imagine it doing things that wouldn't be easily done by anything under $50k, and it would look good doing it.
Whenever this comes up, someone chimes in to say they’re working a some big Hollywood blockbuster, and the production company bought maxed out Max Pros because they are better and faster than anything else.
