The good:

Attractive exterior
Innovative interior
Great value for the baseline configuration
Strong multicore CPU performance

The bad:

Configuration options are not as comprehensive as Dell's
Weak support plan

The bottomline:

Apple's Mac Pro has design innovations that we hope will cross over to other systems. Its performance is as strong as you'd expect for a system in its class, and it's priced right, too. You might need more flexibility in your config options, especially for 3D design, but otherwise, the Mac Pro is as solid a professional-class PC as we've seen.
