I finally got to play with the MacPro in person the other day at my local Apple store. This was not a fully loaded machine, it only had 12gb of ram and 256gb SSD, but I ran a few tests on it. And it was plenty fast for any activity that required multiple cores. I can image that for a build machine that it may be the machine you need. At very least you can increase the productivity of your design team with this machine. Amazing!
