Apple's iMac Pro comes with special black Lightning-to-USB cable
One small perk of the upcoming iMac Pro is a black Lightning-to-USB cable, until now unavailable from Apple.
The accessory's inclusion was highlighted in a first impressions video by YouTuber Marques Brownlee. The cable notably uses a USB-A connector, despite the Pro having four USB-C ports available.
Having been promised since June, 8- and 10-core versions of the iMac Pro will finally go on sale Dec. 14. People wanting 14- or 18-core configurations will have to wait until 2018.
The $4,999 entry-level model will include an 8-core processor, 32 gigabytes of RAM, and a 1-terabyte SSD, with an 8-gigabyte AMD Radeon Pro Vega 56 GPU. Upgrade options will include 16-gigabyte Vega 64 GPUs, up to 128 gigabytes of RAM, and SSDs as big as 4 terabytes.
Black Lightning-to-USB cables are easy to find from third-party manufacturers, but Apple itself has stuck to white for every product so far.

Me back at this point.
Creative cloud will run the same on both platforms. Drawing is clearly better on the surface.
The sup and full touch screen is more functional frlor drawing and manipulating art.
I dint even know why apple released this.
Most folk would just buy the car they want buy, without wandering in and out of other showrooms full of cars they have no intention of getting.

The lightning cables from monoprice.com are way better than Apples and a lot more cost effective; they come in more colors than black or white too. They even have some really nice braided cloth cables that have LED power lights - real handy to ensure your cable is still plugged in if the plug is in a hidden location (like my car stereo USB port).
The other nice thing abour the braided cables? No tangles! Although those only come in black/white.
I also got some USB-C cables for my Nintento Switch. I love that I was able to get them in red so they are obviously not lightning cables since at first glance it’s easy to mix lightening/USB-C.

While you may be happy with that old Cinema Display, as a photographer, I sure as hell would not want to use a monitor that old simply due to its age and attempting to color calibrate it. It's your eyes. Have at it.
Why would I buy a Surface desktop over this? Unless I'm using Windows specific software, there is nothing holding me back at this point.

The Magic Trackpad is more functional for drawing an manipulating art.
I don't even know why Microsoft released the Surface.
OK, I understand why people want to talk about their opinions on products, but what I fail to understand is why people think their opinions are more important than others. I mean, you find the Surface better to do the things you want to do, fine, go buy a Surface. Other people might prefer the iMac Pro, and they should go buy one (funds permitting). Just saying "I LIKE WINDOWS!!!1!" isn't really a criticism of the iMac Pro, other than saying "I LIKE MACS!!11!" is a proper criticism of Windows or a specific Windows platform. And assuming that everyone wants to use their computer the same way you do is just egotism. Different people want different things from their computer Different people do different things on their computer. And more importantly, different people do the same thing different ways on their computer.
