According to a French newspaper, Mac Pro owners have a great risk of developing leukemia. They claim that the tower’s smell is the cause and in fact, contains a few toxins, including benzene. Several forum users have noted the smell as well (anyone notice it?), and the French AppleCare acknowledged the smell issue claiming that it should only effect computers built before 2008. Apple themselves haven’t released any retort or recall as of yet, but one thing is for damn sure: PC fanboys now have a whole new angle of attacking Mac owners.
