We have our hands on the newest $6,000 2019 Mac Pro for a compete teardown and parts analysis as compared to its PC brethren.

Spectacular computer. 100% out of my reach price-wise.
Still perfectly happy with a 2012 iMac & a 2013 MBA. Bought both refurbished.
What PAR35 said, Plus a couple of the Circuit Judges there are very plaintiff friendly. I once saw an analysis that claimed they ruled something like 90% on the plaintiffs sides for these non-practicing entities (NPE) that bought up unused patents and mined their overwrought claims to sue companies based on some really stretched claim buried in an earlier patented invention that often had little to do with what the company was really making, but could be misrepresented to a jury.
Its one of the reasons patent attorneys will toss in everything including the kitchen sink when writing claims for even simple inventions.
It makes creating something and bringing it to market almost impossible these days. Even if you pay for an exhaustive patent search in the field of your new product, theres no guarantee you wont be sued out of existence by one of these NPEs claiming a patents they own for a left-handed Franistan, something entirely unrelated to your product, described your product in Claim 34 in its patent as a potential use for Franistans and you are infringing, and owe them all your profits and penalties for not licensing their patent. It may make no difference if your product fits in a pocket and their patents Franistans were designed for handling freight on supertankers, weigh ten tons and were never made you still might be found to have infringed.
Or, sued out of existence by one of the tech giant tools of the deep state. And, of course, big tech will set up patent pools, which probably need to get a closer look by the antitrust folks. But the real patent abuses are by big Pharma.
Looks overpowered for the vast majority of people, but perfect for power users like recording or movie studios, laboratories, architectural firms, etc.
My garbage can Mac Pro has plenty of power for me, takes up little space and looks cool. I hope theyll have something like that available again in the future (when mine is obsolete).
We have two of those trash can Mac Pro serving my (before I retired) office, doing Hermans duty. One provides everything we needed to do in 3D Cat Scan radiography quite rapidly, and the other everything else as a very fast data server the office of about fifteen iMacs and four Macbook Airs used for chair side data entry, which also handled non-3D digital radiography. We have absolutely no need for the power of the 2019 Mac Pro.
I am certain the new Mac Pro could process the thousands of very low power digital X-ray slices taken in a 360º scan of the skull in about 30 seconds and turn them into a 3D color rendition of bone and soft tissues one can explore in every dimension, measuring to the .001mm accuracy required to do proper implant dentistry, in under two seconds, something that with our current very fast 2013 Mac Pro takes about a minute and a half, but who needs it that fast?
We already know we have a good scan as soon as its taken by an algorithm, and we need to get the patient back into the chair, where they can see it on a screen in more comfort rather than standing by the 3D panelipse machine. Either way the scan file will be ready by the time the doctor will be ready to show them what the inside of their head looks like, from the inside out, if they like. LOL!
