New Mac Pro

With that said, let me think and remember one product that has not been based on an idea ... I'll get back to you if I ever recall one.

They weren't ideas Apple copied and claimed as their own - they were existing products.

I don't think anyone cares about building on someone else's concept. It is the habit of taking other companies to court for looking too similar to your particular copy.

It was only a few short years ago that Pandora was on stage with Steve Jobs helping boost Apple's credibility but I guess Pandoro actually believed Apple doesn't steal ideas because Apple has just stabbed their 'partner' in the back with their 'own' iTunes Radio service. Wow .. Apple just continues inventing new products every year !

It's so... so... revolutionary Cause it's round. See what I did there? LOL. I heard it will be faster than the other Macs but I don't know how to judge their speed so I'm not sure if it really is fast.

The new Mac Pro uses all state of the art consumer/prosumer technology. Intel Xeon E5, DDR3 1866MHz, PCIe SSD, Thunderbolt 2 -- some of these aren't even out yet! Which is probably why the Mac Pro isn't available for sale yet. The memory bandwidth and PCIe SSD transfer rates blow away everything currently on the market.

Of course, by Q4 2013 all these individual components should be available.

While not necessarily revolutionary, the Mac Pro uses only a single fan, and that's not even its main source of cooling. The cylindrical thermal core dissipates heat in an incredibly efficient way. This obviously reduces room temperature as well as energy costs. A huge thing when you remember that this is meant for professionals and enterprises.

My only concern is out of the box upgradability.

It's upgraded by modules. Hence the Thunderbolt 2 connectors.

Remember that the Mac Pro line is designed for prosumers, professionals and enterprise customers, not us ordinary consumers. The plus side is that we'll eventually see these components trickle down to us consumers.

Alright. Like they say, for every YES, there are thousands NOs! LMAO

Let's just agree to disagree.

I guess you haven't been following the threads (or ignoring them) but Apple has copied just about every idea claimed as their own - from Lisa/ Macintosh GUI interface (Zerox) to their iPhone (LG Pravda).

I know how hard this is for Apple fans but those of us that have technology backgrounds and have been around for a while know what a crock of do-do the Apple myth really is.

How much of a technology background do you have? Is it like North Pole's? Because it's Xerox, not Zerox.

And here is the real truth behind the Xerox myth:

It's a good story. Unfortunately, it's also wrong in almost every way a story can be wrong. There are problems with chronology and timing. The testimony of a number of key figures at Apple suggests that the visit was not the revelation early accounts made it out to be.

The Mac Pro is twice as fast as the previous Mac Pro

But it is a Niche market Mac so unless your a video editor, musician, photographer, graphic designer

It's a very advance Mac for the average user

-Unified thermal core
-intel Xeon up to 12-core configs, 256 bit-wide floating point, PCI Express gen 3
-ECC memory 1866MHz DDR3, four channel controller, 60 GBps bandwidth
-PCIe controller, 1.25 GBps reads, 1.0 GBps write
-All expansion is external storage arrays expansion Chassis
- thunderbolt 2, 20 GBps throughput, 6 devices per port, backward compatible
- dual workstations GPU'S 4096 processors, 384-bit memory buses, 528 GBps total bandwidth
- up to 3 4k displays

Which makes one extremely fast Mac Pro
