iTunes has grown kind of strange monster

 

Perfect description. Apple Music on iOS is quite nice these days. Using it on iTunes feels like stepping back to 2005.

Looks like a cheese grater.

 

That's what so many wanted. Not many were happy the trashcan.

For those that don't know, the cheese grater Mac Pro design debuted in 2006 (below pic)...  and was very popular.

 

So all the cheese grater memes popping up today are old jokes. Probably people that didn't know about the 1st gen Mac Pro.

 

A lot of people were disappointed with the 'trashcan' Mac Pro design that came later and it's lack of upgradeability. 

 

I'm happy Apple's gone back to the Mac Pro roots. This is what earlier Mac Pro users have wanted, before the 'trashcan' re-design came along. I love that they're including a rack mounted option too. The new Mac Pro will be a big hit in the pro world.

This one looks better with the small holes. The new one looks ridiculous.

 

 

Lol I agree but it might be for needing seriously better airflow than old one... the housing design (and power supply) needs to cater for the maxed out spec (that people/companies will purchase) not just how us mere mortals may use it.

I hope they have a dust filter on the underside of those holes. 

 

The entire case comes off so easily in one piece. It's pretty cool. So easy to upgrade and clean any part of the inside.

1st Gen Mac Pro has been affectionately known as the cheese grater... since 2006....
