Do you mean that machine that Apple advertised so heavily during their keynote back then and ridiculed the naysayers by saying "can't innovate anymore, my ass"?
Do you mean the machine that hasn't seen any updates for another 2 years again?
Their pace of market share improvements in the PC business isn't really deserved these days.
They treat their computers way too much as orphans... or their customers, however you want to look at it.

Well, not really. The Mac Pro has CPU and GPU power that you can't get in the iMac. However, I suspect that the vast majority of PC users don't need that.
The good old days....feel like I should sing a song
My earliest Mac ran Tiger, but I used to own a PowerBook 540C for fun... my fellow geek took it from me, but he won't have even used it - I recently requested it be "re-allocated" back to me. I have a lot of fun with old OS'
- esp OS 9.2.2 "Eeep!"
The price is high because its new I remember when 16GB was that expensive. OWC was the only maker at the time of 8gb chips. prices will go down once the market increases.
I think the 5400rpm HDD is the part that needs upgrading.
5400rpm... seriously, that's like a factory still pumping out Jaz drives.
64GB RAM is crazy, but true pros will opt for the raw speed from a MacPro. Which hasn't been upgraded since 2013 btw, so Apple, get on to it!

Those 500s were awesome in their time, I remember my brother having one from work specced up and I think it cost something like £4,000!
This is awesome... I want to buy one and i'll probably have it for 6 years. 64 GBs of
Just be an SSD upgrade and be done with it. It uses the new faster 2GB/s flash

Reminds me of the good old DOS times... I once installed Windows 3.11 on a RAM-Drive. It was so fast, but certainly gone after rebooting.
Here I am with 6GB in my Mac Pro, waiting for the whole thing to break so I can buy or build something totally overpowered.

Uhhh, won't that get erased if you don't write it all to disk before shutdown?
Edit: Oh, I see someone already mentioned that. Problem is there's nothing in the OS to automatically load and save the RAM disk to/from storage media. Maybe we'll have that feature coming up.

The stand (that doesn't allow for up and down in height) still sucks!
