I'm swapping because it looks better in my studio, because I like the idea of having a 3 year warranty from Apple and I really love that you can sell your mac few years down the road and still get good money for it. But this conversation is not about why, I'm just trying to find out what route to take, iMac or Mac pro.
If it is really just about aesthetics in your studio, I'd say get the iMac. It is going to be clean a free of cables and the retina display of that size is bound to be simply amazing. If you are ever having clients look at the display, it will show your work as well as possible, too. Those that are concerned about the iMac not being powerful enough, I disagree somewhat if you're using it for LR & PS. If you were trying to crunch video, I'd say get the Mac Pro because that is really what they are geared towards. For photo work, though, the iMac should be more than sufficient. If it isn't, you can resell in a couple of years and put it toward something else. You can use your like-new Dell 27 hooked to your laptop or just resell it.
If it is primarily about how it looks on the desk and client display, I vote iMac.
