I have the 2016 13" Mac Pro without the touch bar, and it is unexpectedly slow. The new model looks to be a much better balance of components. I am glad Apple refreshed the line with current processors and better graphics. It's still a dongle fest, …

All great points! I did not mean to confuse the argument with the use of Hacintosh. First its not legal, second I would not use one for anything that is important or work related. It was just an observation that a PC(Hacintosh) that is 5 years old i…

The fastest Mac video card is 5.5 Tflop.The $500 - Nvidia 1080 is 9 Tflop in a 5 year old Hackintosh? Is there any reason anyone questions the need for a modular Mac or why the AIO does not work for a lot of people? I would caution anyone paying tha…

"How can I charge you too much for 5 year old graphics?" "Oh look another trashcan" "In eighteen months Apple will put out a computer with todays technology"

Its a great history, and very well written as always. The initial assumption that Apples inherent advantage over other platforms is basically the integration of the software and hardware into a walled garden is true. Though, one could argue the hard…

You may need the new Mac Pro to watch it because of all the fun, and we know how little fun is in the Mac lineup now.

Looks like the original iPhone.. so they can make a slide with the original vs 8 and pat themselves on the back for the progress that has been made. Its a fine looking device, but I like the 4, square edge, "Braun" look much better, its more masculi…

Yup no one goes to work and comes home and ever wants to play a game, especially mac users. Consoles are better anyway, wink, wink, wink. The human eye can only see 30fps. And no one works on movies, content creation or VR/AR. Everyone wants to pay …

If you think that HP "just slap a bunch of parts together", I suppose you have no idea what Z workstations are. They have the Z2 Mini, a workstation similar in size to the Mac Mini, all the way to the Z840, with two CPU / 44 Cores and 1TB of…

thank Nvidia, thank you. Please Apple give us a Mac that can use these.

Should be pretty easy for Apple, there are already sites they can just go to to figure out their strategy. 1. Selected motherboard. 2. Create a boot loader. 3. Thank nvidia for commiting to make pascal drivers for the mac. 4. Design a really pretty…

Wait are iMacs Pro Machines? So thats the way we are going, mobile graphics only. A laptop motherboard behind a nice screen is Pro. A screen that is useless to me in 3 years because I need to upgrade other hardware. The least green machines availabl…

Could have been working on the Mac Pro design team and just got bored doing nothing for 3 years.

Yippee being underpowered gives you more battery life!!!!

At what point did Microsoft and Apple switch places? Sure OS X is still better than Windows imo, but I think the Surface Studio looks more Apple like than anything Apple has created in years.

OOOO, i get it the screen is gonna be longer so that they can add a touch bar to the iPhone for emoji like the MacBook Pro. I was wondering why they would change the screen proportions, seemed like it would be havoc for developers. Now we can easily…

I know I am in the minority, my business benefits from the most modern computer components so the iMac, being a laptop mounted behind a beautiful screen does not fit my needs. Its hard for me to justify buying a new monitor every 3 years, more memor…
