Mac Pro for $ 3000 – it’s not crazy. Yes, you heard right, I really think this is a great offer. Let’s do a little history. In 1984 he was presented the original Macintosh , which had 128 kilobytes of memory and cost 2495 dollars. If we transfer this amount to date, it will be equal to 5616 dollars. And let’s try to spend a little parallel between the two devices. Will be based on the data that Apple has told us about his creation – the most “powerful vial of” the market.
Leaving long way computing and immediately turn to our results. The new device has more than 10,000 times more memory than the original Mac. And if we go down the road of “direct comparison”, by the way, it is possible, then we will get some interesting results. According to rough estimates, Mac Pro is faster by about 10 thousand times. And it is worth noting that the device is sold at cost, which in 2999 dollars, or 2617 dollars less than the cost of the original Mac after calculating its value to inflation.
Such comparisons are taking place. We can connect to all the famous “Moore’s Law”, which states that every 24 months the number of transistors placed on a chip integrated circuits doubles. Simply put, every 24 months means a two-time performance gains. And then realize that the first thing: these comparisons are very reasonable, and secondly, for the moment Mac Pro is a terrific device that virtually benchmark performance and on the compactness.
