Default Re: PC version of the Mac Pro

Ok I took a look around and I couldn't find one similar to this at HP but I did find one at Dell. I have listed the two computers below. Why is there such a big price difference. The Mac Pro appears to be a better build but a $1000 less. What gives, am I missing something?
