What about the resale value of a Mac? The 2006 Mac Pro is selling on eBay for around $600-$800. Tell me if you can find a 6 year old PC that is selling for that much.

Selling or asking? I can advertise and ask for $20,000 for my current custom PC, but that does not mean I'm going to get it. Only a fool would buy an Apple computer, never-mind an even more outdated one. Re-sale value has everything to due with the name and superior marketing, not because of a good price:performance ratio.

It depends what editor you are using.
But, it's the same on Mac as on PC.

This means nothing without the original price tag. It also shows that Macs only stay overpriced and you're still paying out the arse for stupidly outdated hardware. The Mac Pro is also seemingly discontinued, another shot to the foot from Apple's own gun.
