The only platform not yet supported is the Mac Pro, although there probably isn’t much left to do. No, not the “MacBook Pro”, but the “Mac Pro” – the one that looks like a cheese grater and costs thrice as much.

I’ve always wondered what sort of look they were going for.

The Mac Pro only costs three times as much as a cheese grater???

Apparently they make it up on the wheels. Apple is a strange company.

I think the wheels and stuff are just for marketing at this point.

Gotta respect a quality use of the word “thrice”

Ignoring its existence is spitting in the mouth of pragmatism, and not in a good way

What comes after thrice? Quadrice? Tetrice?

I remember seeing it and thinking “No, this can’t be real. No way Apple actually did this.”

Edit: I just checked and if you apply all upgrades, the total hardware cost is $12,348. That’s 3.5th the price of the future  Vision Pro

Have fun with your seven thousand dollar cheese grater.

Might’ve been a marketing move to connect to the apple pie with cheese demographic.

Did they just forget to crop the whole thing? It looks even more hideous with the grey background on the black background.

My browser is forcing dark mode on it and the picture is not transparent.

When did they give up on the trash can? I miss the trash can. It was easier to call it overpriced garbage when it looked like an actual garbage receptical.
