I liked it in the pictures/renders, but it's really hard to appreciate until you see the mac pro in a normal room, like in the ifixit video where someone outright uses it as a cheese grater. lol.


Seriously though, it's beautiful. Even if I think the price is completely asinine, I can appreciate that much. It's like if rolls royce made a computer. (Let's not discuss the price here, it's already been done to death everywhere)

I can't be the only one that admires how pretty it is, right?

Edit: The full video.

Edit #25: I am a little worried this thread is going to spark a flame war of "HOW DARE YOU TREAT OUR SERIOUS EQUIPMENT AS AN ITEM OF BEAUTY!!!" from the content creators. ;)

Edit #26: The vent pattern totally reminds me of the MDD G4, if nobody's brought that up before.

Totally agree with you, not just the case but also the Internals are really a testament to Steve Jobs philosophy of making everything beautiful not just from the outside but also inside.
 
Joe, that’s a nice clean g4 you have there...... 👍
I really don’t get how ‘battered’ some cMP‘s look when you see screenshots.....🤪
My cMP (and G5 before it) look like new (apart from a bit of dust).
What do people do with their machines....?

Getting that cheese off will be a pig.
That is most definitely not something you would do to a bit of kit like that.
