“Apple has radically redesigned the Mac Pro, fitting enormous power into a relatively small enclosure,” The Verge reports.
“That is, a relatively small, incredibly reflective, cylindrical enclosure,” The Verge reports.We’ve only just begun using the Mac Pro, but here is your first look at the retail hardware.”
Apple’s Mac Pro began shipping on Thursday, December 19th. Redesigned from the inside out, the all-new Mac Pro features the latest Intel Xeon processors, dual workstation-class GPUs, PCIe-based flash storage and ultra-fast ECC memory. Designed around an innovative unified thermal core, the all-new Mac Pro packs unprecedented performance into an aluminum enclosure that is just 9.9-inches tall and one-eighth the volume of the previous generation.

Apple needs a black aluminum KB and mouse to go with that. (Backlit too)
Agree. The silver aluminum keyboard and white mouse just looks wrong.
They’ve needed to update those for some time now.
Totally agree. Black!
Looks like some kind of droid from Star Wars.
R2D2 dressed in black. haha
Like wearing white shoes with a black tuxedo
That’s OK as long as it’s not after Labor Day.
I hear its almost as big as a Mickey’s Big Mouth.
Scratch that, make it Fosters!
“Dude… did you really just roll that across the desk? Thats company money and you just scuffed it up. What are you dumb? You’re fired!”
Of all Humankind’s inventions, the computer is the most prolific!!!
Now finally, we have the “Masterpiece Machine” that will be the standard for the next decade!
Happy Holidays to one & all!
Shipping times for BTOs are already stretching into February 2014.
That 4K screen looks….convincing.
I think, even if I could afford one, I’d stay away from it – or else the two 24′ displays in the office would look too bad 😉
First Geekbench 3 results from a 6-core Mac Pro:

Looks like about a 30% bump over last generation hexacore Mac Pros.
… and as for first looks: it’s not black, its gray, glossy, fingerprint magnet. Handle with a glove when you get one.
Loved the “rolling” Mac! Too funny.
