2013 Mac Pro teardown reveals Apples first easily repairable computer in years
2013-12-31 19:57:55| Extremetech
The 2013 Mac Pro has been torn down, and rather remarkably, in addition to it being surprisingly good value for money, it's actually fairly easy to fix and upgrade! Upgrading the Mac Pro's RAM is easier than your desktop or laptop PC, and it's also fairly easy to upgrade the Intel Xeon (Ivy Bridge-E) CPU. All of the major components are modular and can be easily removed, though proprietary connectors mean that you can't upgrade the graphics cards or SSD with off-the-shelf components. Overall, iFixit gives the Mac Pro a repairability score of 8 out of 10; much, much higher than the latest MacBooks, iPhones, and iPads.

Mac Pro Earns High Praise, Repairability Score From iFixit

Apples new overpriced $10,000 Mac Pro is $2,000 cheaper than the equivalent Windows PC
2013-12-30 16:27:56| Extremetech
Last week, the new Mac Pro finally went on sale. At $3000 for the entry-level model, and a max price of $9,600 for a customized top-of-the-line model with a 12-core CPU and two GPUs, the Mac Pro certainly isn't cheap. If you take a closer look at the spec, though, the Mac Pro, rather unusually for an Apple product, is a surprisingly good deal. If you try to match the components as closely as possible, it would actually cost around $11,500 to build the equivalent Windows-powered DIY PC.
