Not sure what the crowd reaction was for...
Those were the expected spec bumps and little more.
"It's 30% faster than our last generation"... Yeah... which launched when again?
Sheesh...
And please tell me closing up, confining more and more isn't the main Pro desktop strategy.
I know they hinted at a true desktop, however seeing how this iMac with Xeon comes in at base 5k dollars this puts Mac Pro pricing in a VERY weird spot.

And so Apple killed the whole Mac Pro line with one fell swoop, and replaced it with a souped iMac.
They killed it, threw away its soul, and turned its body into a jukebox.
Damn you.

Omg I totally missed that. So now its the same as the 2015 MBP, with a slightly faster interior (although CPU clocked lower) and thinner and less ports?! Seriously...
Am interested in these, nice updates Apple! Love that they took base storage to 64GB, buying up on storage isn't a "have to do" now.
Ordered the 10.5" iPad Pro. Shipping on the 13th. Seems they killed the smart case, at least I can't find it.
Ordered:
- 10.5" iPad Pro, 256GB, Cellular
- Apple Pencil
- Black Leather Smart Case
Count me in for new 10.5" ipad pro.
Wish Mac Mini was updated, but that will come later as to not cannibalize higher profit margin iMac sales.

Updated: New 15inches have updated GPUs to 555 and 560. Base configuration is configured with the 555 and the top configuration to the 560. No 550. Each configuration is 100 dollar cheaper in the US compared to the same level in the last generation.

So they cleanup the control center and show off the new 3D Touch features, but then release an all new iPad without 3D Touch?

Yes, true! The 2011 iMac has better Specs than the 2017 model... Sells for 550 bucks on ebay -that's literally half of what apple charges for the "new" model.
Seriously Apple?

Sadly, just basically tweaking their existing product line. It's clear now that innovation died with Steve Jobs.
Well, in Europe they've increased each configuration by 100€ while the €/$ exchange rate hasn't really changed since October 2016.
They've already held a press briefing a while back where they've stated a "proper" mac pro is in the works but likely won't see the light of day until 2019

It's called the Intel Nuc7 and Tony Mac will help you get it configured.
"imac pro".. another fail product. There is no true "pro" implementation with compact design, needs to be upgradable! Pros need to upgrade / change everything. Haven't you learned your lesson with the failure called mac pro 2013? It's not all about style, I'm still using two 9-year-old mac pros, with Nvidias just for their CUDA, which your "future" Imac pro won't support..
They are brand new. The previous were 450/455/460. I'm a little bit pissed off. They should've held off releasing the MacBooks until now. There's not much info out there but it sucks being stuck with a 455 or 460 if the new chips offer a significant improvement. Kaby Lake really doesn't bother me.
