There are ways to sync them. How tight the sync will be is another matter.

Satellite allows for near sample-accurate sync.

If you want to sync via MIDI, you would use MIDI Time Code (MTC). Generate MTC from your MacPro and route that to a MIDI input on your PC and have that system chase the MTC. It won't be as tight as Satellite, but it might be good enough.
