I was waiting to see if new desktops were coming with some real horse power but I guess not, our fleet of mac pros from 2012 are dying and lagging...we skipped the "cylinder" as our competitor complained about how much trouble they had with them so bought some dell precisions maxed out, the graphics art dept complained but oh well they are working great and we could not afford to wait it out with business doubling this year
Interesting, thanks. But am I the only one who cringed through most of it? Makes you appreciate the professionalism and flow of Apple’s keynotes and product events.

Yes - you are the only one who cringed. 😉
Everyone else realized that the clip was from a much longer keynote and was chopped to the most significant nine minutes.
One shouldn't judge the whole keynote from this chopped excerpt.
You must have missed this year's WWDC keynote then ...
Tupperware parties are just as slick, plus they have content and decent products to sell .
Affordable too, modular, backwards compatible, based on customer needs .
And the hosts are not a bunch of trained monkeys reading from a script .

As someone who watched the whole keynote, it's really not worth watching the full thing to judge. 😛
Apple's events have their ups and down, but in their favor they're usually quite disciplined with time and they usually get competent presenters. Your actual interest is of course going to waver whether or not you care about the topics they're covering (AI bandmates and Apple TV wallpapers are never going to be interesting to me.)
You assume that I failed to realize that the clip was chopped (despite the rather large "Intel's Computex keynote in under 9 minutes" header and obvious cuts in both video and audio), which would suggest you have me pegged for a moron.
If that is indeed the case, why even bother to reply? Just to be snarky?

...because you complained that a chopped Intel keynote didn't "flow" like an Apple keynote.
You could have leveled many valid criticisms - but "flow" can't be ascertained from a chopped clip.
Oh, you're one of those. Reconstructing what I said to validate your response. Whatever, bro, go to town.

lol.. I didn't mean to cause a turmoil 😱
The point of the summarised video (and yes, only Apple can do keynotes 😎) is that Intel drove OEMs to build new "Pro creative" PCs, with apparently 1-2 full PCI slots. I would expect a mMP to start from 2 and have options for more slots with additional modules.

Just the latest complaint. I think many of us will agree with the guy.

Only thing worse than a Youtuber doing the usual hyperbole and dumb thumbnail nonsense is an old guy who should have some self-respect doing it.
I like his style. Fun and sarcastic - and to the point. Been an subscriber for a while.

I've heard plenty of the same criticism, and I prefer to get it from people who don't have these as their video thumbnails:

Tupperware is pretty good. They'll replace sets at no charge. For glassware, I really like the Pyrex stuff. Seals on containers still work four years later.
In terms of Tupperware, I had a bunch of stuff in storage from decades ago that hadn't been used in decades. Turned it in and got the equivalent in new sets.
All these MLM should be considered a Satanic Sect, or kinda the Illuminati, masons, skulls & bones, the Water Buffaloes ...
