shouldn’t the existing Apple fan boys be insulted ?-
as NO ONE needs all those slots, no one needs all those ports, no one needs all that RAM, etc.
You can do “EVERYTHING” with the current Mac’s – why would anyone need anything else ?Are you telling me that “they” were WRONG ?
Yes – the new Mac Pro looks amazing, and coming from a background of very expensive Sony VTR’s – it really doesn’t matter what it costs, because a HP Z8 loaded with RAM, dual RTX-2080ti’s, HP Dreamcolor Z31X monitor, etc. costs a fortune as well.
We have another PROFESSIONAL product from Apple now – who cares what people that don’t do professional hi end work think about this. I am happy it cost a lot of money.

June 4, 2019 at 2:26 amthats a sexy looking computer.. I probably will never need a puter with that much potential horsepower but I want one.
Great to see apple listening. Not swinging for the fences and whiffing (the traschcan), and just giving us something that works in a tried and trusted package.

June 4, 2019 at 4:26 pm[Drew Lahat] “2. Expansion
8 PCI slots! I don’t think any Mac ever had more than 6 expansion slots, and I also counted up to 12 Thunderbolt ports. That’s some scary expansion capability.”There are only 4 TB ports per Apple’s spec (2 back and 2 on top). The other USB-C ports are just USB 3.x ports and not TB.
In theory, it can be expanded via PCIe but that would be dependent on Apple. -

A few cheesy jokes (many of them great) have shown up in many Facebook groups.
MAGA – Make Apple Grate Again
Several Tesla comments
One photo had a kitchen scene loved the external heat sink
A few cheese grater GIFs
Of course there have been some degrating remarks ????Now where is the wine? Have plenty of cheese to go with it.

June 4, 2019 at 6:14 pmNow that they’ve fixed the MacPro — can Apple also admit their newer MacBook is not an improvement over the 2014, 2015 models?
Need more ports (does anyone make a USB Drive that nativly works with these ports?) , a keyboard writers can actually use rather than feel as though they are pounding on concrete….lose the solution in search of a problem touch bar…..enough space to cool the high powered processors…
I haven’t bought a macbook pro in 4 years because the newer models don’t do the trick

Yes, many newer drives use USB-C. I just bought a Samsung 2TB T5 SSD. Comes with USB-C to USB-C and USB-C to USB-A cables. I also bought a CFast2.0 card reader which also including both cables.
