Are you going to buy a new Mac Pro, and if so, what would you use it for?

Nashton
RAW photo editing with LR and CS. Huge RAW files to crunch through.

Sandman
Any examples? My Macbook Air chews through 36MP (Nikon D800) RAW files like a hot knife through butter.

OTOH, I can build my own PC for a fraction of what this cylindrical iteration of the Apple Cube will cost.

Sandman
What will this "Apple Cube" cost, now again?

Lewis
The guesses for the high-end version they showed are north of US$4,000.

I would bet that it comes in costing about the same as the current Mac Pro, so... ...maybe, yeah.
