The End of the Mac Pro

Apple announced that the Mac Pro was being discontinued today.

While I have never been a Mac Pro user (other than using them in school labs and/or at work), and have never owned one, they always had the wow factor for Mac users, and most old school Mac users aspire to own one “eventually”, yet most never do.

The Mac Studio is way more affordable, and definitely fits in with Steve Jobs’ wish for the Pro desktop to be in a small, cube like form factor (the original Power Mac G4 Cube, the 2013 Trash Can Mac Pro even), and always have been where Apple was working towards right from the start.

Even though the naming conventions are now completely different, but 3 laptops and 3 desktops make for a good Mac lineup.

Speaking of Mac Pros, do you know that the 2013 Mac Pros, until very recently, were leading a second life as the core of the system in Apple’s Maps Lookaround imagery data collection vehicles?
