“Meet Mac Pro. Running at speeds up to 3GHz, Mac Pro not only completes the Mac transition to Intel processors but delivers advanced performance, workstation graphics, and up to 4.9 million possible configurations.” Bugger me that looks sweet.

totally man. Dual Xeons in the lowest end even provides awesome performance.
If you think about running a website on this, wouldn’t it be cheaper in terms of money as well as effort to actually buy dedicated server hosting? US hosting services providers have good rates, much cheaper than what goes around in the UK. Also, in my experience the claims for virtually no downtime (99.9% uptime) and 24/7 email support are true. Ot it may be that I just have been lucky to deal with good companies (have been dealing with three such companies).
Uh yes it would due simple to economies of scale, big ISP’s or hosts buy everything in bulk, simple as that.
