Mac Pro
Early 2008
Towers2008Common
The Mac Pro replaced the Power Mac G5 in 2006 as Apple's professional desktop, now powered by Intel Xeon processors in a case virtually identical to its predecessor. The 2006 and 2008 towers established Apple's premium workstation credentials in the Intel era, offering expansion, dual-processor options, and the raw performance that professional video, audio, and science applications demanded.
