iMac Pro first-look preview: It’s out now!
What is the iMac Pro?
In a nutshell, it's a supercomputer, offering workstation-class processors and graphics encased in an iMac shell – which means you also get a 5K Retina display.
This is a computer for people with very specific needs. With a starting price of almost $5k, it's not something that your typical Apple fan will be rushing out to buy. This is a machine for professional creatives who need the extra cores and the ultimate graphics power it will bring.
But, it seems, the target audience shouldn't be too power-hungry, because there has to be someone whom the Mac Pro, arriving in 2018 or later, will suit.
Speaking of the Mac Pro, should these creative pros be wary of signing up for a machine that might not be upgradable in the future, as was the case with the Mac Pro?
The Mac Pro wasn't only not user-upgradable, it turned out that Apple couldn't upgrade it either, hence having to go back to the drawing board and completely redesign the Mac Pro, as MacWorld.co.uk discusses: new Mac Pro news.
