    Does anyone here own both? The Mac Pro is a sweet machine, I could see it working well with a Macbook Pro. Wouldn't file sharing, email, and everything else be seem less with that type of setup?

    We have two Mac Pros (8 cores) at work and its a total beast. Definitely the fastest desktops I've ever used.

    But I'm not sure what you mean by file sharing. Since they're both macs sharing would be easier, but it wouldn't make a difference if you had 2 mac pros, or 2 mbps.
