Is the new Mac Pro black or polished aluminum?

The website says polished alum, but people keep saying it's black. I'd love it to be polished alum.

The thing is so amazingly aggressive and minimal, it looks like it belongs in the Batcave. Too bad Ive isn't as good of a GUI designer. iOS 7 looks horrible.

Funny, I was just thinking about how great iOS7 looks compared to previous versions.

All the pictures I've seen look like glossy black. It could be polished aluminum, then anodized black.

but anodized black is most always matte. the Pro has a mirrored finish.

If the website says it's polished aluminium, then it is polished aluminium. I mean, I don't see why they would say something different.

It looks better "in motion" than it does in some of the published screenshots. At least to me - and what I saw during the video was impressive (for Apple). I want to see it on the iPad as well, but most of looks have been of the iPhone 5 format.

Looks like both according to these photos:

It's a reflective polished finish but it's definitely coated/tinted black. Probably anodized first and then polished.

Those pictures make it look similar to smoked chrome, quite possibly my favorite metal finish.
