The first orders of Apple’s all-new rack mountable Mac Pro are arriving to customers after Apple made the new machine available last week.
As expected, the folks at MacStadium are planning to host the new Mac Pro in their data centers, and they’ve gotten their hands on the new rack mountable machine today.
MacStadium VP Brian Stucki took to Twitter this afternoon to share a look at the new Mac Pro in MacStaidum data centers. The rack-mounted Mac Pro can be seen in the MacStadium data center alongside the 2013 Mac Pro.
Exciting day in the @MacStadium data centers. One of these things is not like the others… pic.twitter.com/uiDB9FJbnD

Those shiny handles and grill look strangely (more) appropriate on horizontal rack 🙂

My lust for rackmount units is up.
Mouse? Keyboard?
Is one supposed to sit in front of a 19″ rack in a noisy datacenter whilst thinking different?
Yes, they exist. One rack unit. Commonly used in industrial and scientific labs all over the place.
Or if you “Think Different”, perhaps you mount many keyboards on your studio rack:
And if you’re really pushing serious dataflows, your office layout might look like this:
Despite all of Apple’s advertising, it’s not very common to run a business with a bare desk and one thin MacBook.
I see nary a 1U rack mount keyboard/mouse in your utopian datacenter. In fact, I see the workspace situated away from the noisy rack mount hardware.
Really 6.5k for a 8 core xeon in a rack chassis? What sort of idoits buy this, other than for the OS licensing?
