Secrecy adds excitement to consumer reveals, but in the professional and corporate space, where peoples livelihoods are at stake, it’s anathema.

So in April 2017, Apple invited journalists to Cupertino for a rare mea culpa and a promise to re-energise the professional desktop line-up with an iMac Pro by the end of the year and an all-new Mac Pro to follow.Įqually important, the company acknowledged the lack of communication that has so undermined faith in its pro line-up. But what form will its replacement take? Mac Pro 6.1 EOL

That limitation might have been more bearable if there’d still been a 17-inch MacBook that could take different RAM or if the Mac Pro had been updated recently.Īpple loyalists have seen the company through some lean times, but it now being the richest corporation on Earth building a stunning new Cupertino campus and talking up the future of iOS as a PC replacement, it seemed like the end of the line for professionals and Mac. The Intel Kaby Lake CPU’s only supported 16GB with the high-speed, low-voltage RAM used in the MacBooks. This wasn’t Apple being ignorant of high-end application requirements. Perhaps the most infuriating of all was a 16GB max RAM limit. The new low-travel keyboard didn’t help either, with many disliking the feel and even more so its expensive fragility. However, the OLED Touch Bar drove up pricing while failing to deliver a killer benefit – particularly for professionals who often use external keyboards.
#MAC PRO 2017 CONCEPT UPDATE#
The boldly innovative Mac Pro desktop hadn’t seen a significant update since launch, while the refresh of the MacBook Pro line-up in 2016 proved spectacularly divisive.Īs was to be expected, the refresh had a slimmed down chassis size and dropped ports. The backbone of a company then teetering on the edge of bankruptcy was creative professionals, a relationship dating back to Steve Jobs’ 1985 gamble on the LaserWriter, sparking the desktop publishing revolution.īy 2017, the Mac product grid was in obvious disarray and Apple’s relationship with professionals frayed to breaking point. Apple’s goal was to simply deliver four great products, one for each quadrant - iMac, iBook, Power Mac, PowerBook. In 1997, Steve Jobs reset Apple’s Macintosh product strategy with a simple chart: portable/desktop, consumer/professional. The iMac Pro showed that Apple still cares for the professional market Winning back creatives Every four years, the Olympics provide the broadcast industry with an opportunity to demo the most cutting-edge technology and the Tokyo Games in 2020 will feature 8K broadcasts thanks to a government-backed consortium including Sony.ĨK and growing interest in VR applications provide obvious targets for Apple’s new professional flagship.

In terms of headline features, it seems inevitable that 8K will be a defining feature with support included in the December FCPX update. These first generation iMac Pro’s are an engineering tour de force that illustrates exactly what Apple can do with an ultra-thin chassis designed for consumers and laptop components.īut the next step is the one that will matter most: a next-generation Mac Pro with an all-new design for professional applications. Even the pricing, which starts at £5k and scales up to over £13k, is competitive on a like-to-like basis with similar PC-based set-ups.

A multitude of configurations, impressive performance, an innovative ARM co-processor, plus that stunning space grey finish.
