    -"Yes! We are bringing Dark Mode™ to iOS."
    *huge applause and cheers*

    That just cracked me up so hard.

    I had to stop watching the introductory video at "built around a stainless steel space frame".... I'm surprised he didn't say "built around a carbon fibre space frame....the same as used in Formula 1 cars"... because we all want our computers to withstand an impact with a concrete wall at 180mph.

    That may be the only good thing to come of this. But the whole Thunderbolt 3 thing bothers me. In fact Apple bothers me lately. My imac is at that age where I would normally upgrade and I really can't be bothered. It all looks good on paper (except the price) and then you still get the same error messages in Logic that you fool yourself into thinking will be a thing of the past with the new faster better stronger higher bigger processors promising a 5,231% improvement in Geekbench tests, but only a 3% improvement in loading one instance of Kontakt.

    A "pro" gets the best equipment for the job. They don't necessarily spend a lot of money on additional computer components that a company ouside their industry decides to pile in with zero flexibility. Seeing high level musicians working with hackintoshes in high budget projects is pro enough for me.

    There is even a workaround to delete Windows and install macOS on a real computer.

    I just bought an i9-9900k with 2 x 1TB NVMe, 64 GB, 10 TB HDD, Vega 56 for less than half the price of a bare bone basic Mac Pro, and macOS Mojave is running great on it - and with less struggle to install it than I had with Windows 10 (I still can't get 4k UHD 60Hz 4:4:4 with Windows and it's running on the damn same hardware).

    it's quite obvious such device is designed to be mounted in properly cooled machine rooms with minimum dust accumulation :invision:

    all arguing and reasoning aside remember guys there will always be some lucky folks who will buy this without breaking a sweat... some are lucky i guess
    never bought a mac in my life and i guess i'll never will (and here in my country the price is usually much higher ) but i got to admit it looks sexy design wise and tempting i do feel i would love using logic just my 2 cents
    cheers
    ps u'll keep bashing you own companies one day you'll wake up to using all chinese brands !

    I'm gonna leave it until the Black Edition (that'll come with the UberNanoBeard WaxTrim thunderbolt interface) gets released before i buy mine. I just know all my gearslutz buddies will be just SO super jealous - cool!

    Of course i'm joking. I've already ordered TWO of these puppies... 30 seconds after the announcement, no less - how cool is that?!? I was like - "well i've just HAVE to!!!" - damn, that's how i am!!!

    Yeah, i reckon i'll just sit the Black Edition (did i mention the totally essential Apple UltraWink AI+ thunderbolt penile interface i'm going to get with it when it comes out?) in between them, just asap... SO cool. Way cooler than you or even me, even!!

    Yeah, i've been singing that abba tune about cash all day. Shit i'm so cool. And Happy. I was just destined to be a winner i guess!I Man, just how awesome is that!?!? I just can't wait to tell all my friends...
