Apple Ars has reviewed the new Mac Pro. "The performance of Harpertown and Stoakley is more evidence that Intel is doing right by Apple, and this eight-core monster is a worthy successor to the Mac Pro name. At USD 3599, it's expensive; the USD 800 cheaper 2.8GHz model will likely be adequate for the majority of users. But if you want maximum performance and a machine that's unlikely to show its age anytime soon, the Mac Pro is a good buy."

I agree about the 8800 supporting OpenGL spec, but was the real chipset change due to OpenGL 2.1 or the fact that DX10 has completely been retooled?

I'm not a MS fan, by any stretch. I want games to promote OpenGL first, and support DXn as a side note like the old days, regardless of what the POS xbox du-juor is trying to lock people up with.
