wow, the MacPro has some sexy looking edges  :P
But, it costs a million dollars because it was intended for professional use (the same thing is basically the case for the MacBook Pro as well). ;)

Macs are capable of having considerably more memory than PC's.
But Macs tend to use that memory more efficiently. :yes:

Like I told you, the Mac Pro is for professionals. The big screen is needed, especially for video editing, because professionals tend to do more (specifically, at the same time) than the average user. :yes:

Because it was THE most advanced computer at the time, and incredibly visually appealing. What else could it possibly be.

Look at what i found describing the MacPro:

Features Quad-Core Intel Xeon processors up to 3.2GHz. ... Introducing all-new, high-end, blow-you-away graphics. ...

That sounds about right. It's probably the world's most advanced publically-available computer
