If you’re reading this, chances are you know all about the new Mac Pro’s design, but here’s a refresher. You’ll have to decide if Apple’s new approach is right for you. The best I can do is tell you what the new Mac Pro is, what it does, and how well it does those things. I’m not here to tell you which view is right or wrong, because real people with real jobs and real needs hold each. Thanks to its diminutive profile and attractive design, the Mac Pro is clearly meant to be a computer for your desk, rather than something you hide under your desk Both sides can make a good case: Depending on your particular uses and needs, the new Mac Pro may be exactly what you want (a state-of-the-art, multi-core-processor, workstation-GPU computer that doesn’t waste space and resources on expandability you may never use), or nothing like what you need (a workhorse tower with tons of bays and slots for expansion). Others thought it was a slap in the face of “real” pro users. Some people thought the new computer was a brilliant design that embraced current trends in high-end computing. The short answer is, “It depends.” When the new Mac Pro was announced this past summer, the initial reactions were, to put it mildly, polarized. Does it live up to its name as a professional’s Mac? Whatever you call it, it’s the company’s new flagship computer-its halo car, if you will-and we’ve been putting it through its paces.
Apple calls it the Mac Pro (Late 2013) a snarky reviewer might call it the Mac Pro (Almost 2014).
Higher-end configurations quickly get expensiveīack in June, when Apple gave us a preview of the new Mac Pro, the company said it would ship “later this year.” Here we are, just a few days shy of 2014, and the new Mac Pro has arrived.Single-core performance not substantially better (and sometimes worse) than that of other current Macs.
