High-end users on 'Why I'm buying the new Mac Pro'
Keep in mind that this article is only sampling a small minority of the target audience, so AI's conclusion is nothing more than anecdotal and selective rationale.
We will have to see how the targeted industry in general responds to this. I know major studios have beefy non-Mac workstations partly because they have been burned by Apple before. It will be interesting to see if they will look to replace their current workstations for their Avid/Premiere collaborative workflows.

Watch Apple's iPad Pro chew through Fortnite at 60fps
I would think all of the above. 3.5mm plugs are ubiquitous. Lightning to 3.5mm cables are not. Having to remember to carry an adapter with your ubiquitous equipment is easily forgotten. Wireless fidelity isn't quite there yet for studio grade recording.randominternetperson said:
Serious question here: why can't you just use the Apple lightning headphone adapter? It is tying up the port or the sound quality or an objection to extra cords?SpamSandwich said:It’s a powerful iPad, no doubt. Speaking only for myself, the lack of a headphone jack to accept recording studio standard equipment killed the possibility of me buying one for now. I consider this exclusion a shortsighted decision. Surely no “pros” expected Apple to do that.
I don’t care about Fortnite in the slightest and I’m not going to spend about $2K for a new iPad that’s incompatible with most of my industry standard audio gear.
Apple sometimes leads in the wrong direction on product design, IMO. They’re not perfect and that’s OK.

Apple should take note that people (and large organizations) are actually interested in their laptops.
