I hope Apple is reading this...
Apple, I really like the new Mac Pro, it looks great and very powerful. However, I don't need that computer. I want an iMac. But the Pro version is simply looking a bit obsolete at the moment. Not to mention the abysmal updatability of both versions. Here's an idea.
Put the screen on a permanently mounted frame that makes it so the screen doesn't need to be removed to get to the internals. make the back of it screw on and off. Make the internals open to the user when the back is screwed off. Make it so I can update the drive, the RAM, and heck, maybe even the CPU and GPU. Sell those updates if you want, but stop with the 150% markup and you may even sell a few...
Combine the iMac and iMac Pro and use the Core-X series of chips. Save the Xeons for the Mac Pro. Redesign it so that there is adequate airflow so that thermal throttling will be a thing of the past. It's time. Blow my mind.
I know you CAN make this happen, the question is, will you make it happen.
