June 10, 2013 at 7:33 pmOh…I don’t know – expandability using standard components, rack mounting, things that make it work well within a professional environment. I have some very small pro audio equipment, but it’s made to fit all of the standards – XLR, 1/4″, tripod mounts, that sort of thing. I guess I wouldn’t have been bothered by “not quite that small”. Try and work on anything inside without tweezers – oh…that’s been solved…

“They have no taste. And I mean that in an important way.”
“It’s supposed to be a workstation. Taste, design, looks – utterly irrelevant to me and a lot of people buying these types of machine. They are sitting under the desk or in a machine room. Sacrificing a ton of functionality for looks and design – what a marvelous idea.
Show me a construction company that chooses its excavator based on taste and looks.
Ridiculous machine.——

June 10, 2013 at 7:39 pmI’m shocked at your shock Joseph. 🙂
When was the last time Apple had a desktop that was rack mountable w/o a case mod? The G4 towers that had ‘removable’ ears and feet? Apple’s long time goal has been to make computers into computing appliances and this is final nail in the coffin. All of Apple’s devices are pretty much sealed units now I think.

Expansion and Pro I/O is EXTERNAL, hopefully they’ll be some nice big PRO boxes to add on

I work in a professional environment and I’ve never needed to have my “desktop” computer rack mounted. Sure it’s great if you’re running a server farm or you’re an IT or network guy, but my edit bay doesn’t have to have it. It’s a MUCH smaller footprint which means it could be on top of my desk instead of under it, giving me access to the back panel for connections. And since it’s expansion is all external, you can buy rack mountable chassis for your peripherals if you want.

June 10, 2013 at 7:42 pmYou can get your Thunderbolt drives, and other peripherals and rack them.. I think that is a good idea. I’m liking this new version
