Mac Studio is the future

Seems like a nothing burger. Just changing the name of the product line.

Now that the entire Mac Pro line has been discontinued after 20 years, a moment of silence for the best trash can of all time.

They were ok. The funniest part (to me at least) is that IT people had to figure out how to mount those things into server racks.

They're apparently usable still, but certainly not "pro" machines anymore. I would infer they are better as Linux machines now with official support ended and even Microslop Windows 10 allegedly more performant than the latest macOS they can be patched to run.

But I was told that EVERY professional uses macs exclusively! Surely they wouldn't cancel the industry standard computer.
