No, Apple's new Mac Pro isn't overpriced
The problem here is the machine has an even smaller target audience than ever before. There are an incredible amount of pros out there that are feeling left behind as the new machine is priced beyond their budget due to its small target audience.
If apple put out a threadripper Mac Pro in that $6k range, that would fill the gap.
You can buy a threadripper 3970x system with apples base specs for $4500 and have Nvidia support and a processor that can render circles around the top Mac Pro processor.
Just because ILM and WETA might be ordering some of these machines only supports this problem. This machine could have been good enough to where all pros would be upgrading, not just a few very high end studios.
This Mac Pro only further alienates apple from the pro community.
