huh. apple discontinued the mac pro. not announced a replacement, not stopped taking orders because a new model's coming down the pipe, just hard discontinued it.
end of an era, i guess, although the last mac pro was frankly a silly machine

@pikhq for a long time the one advantage was PCIe slots, and… I just never saw any quantity of cards to put in them?

I really enjoyed the “load up a bunch of shit into your computer” era, ProTools systems with 16 slot expansion chassis, stuff like that.

@0x09 that's not even much of an advantage, since there's outright nothing you can do with the M* mac pro you can't with a mac studio and a thunderbolt-to-pcie box, and the combo of a mac studio and pcie box is cheaper
@0x09 sonnettech even makes a rack mountable combo unit for this exact purpose, if you want it to look nicer/be easy to rack mount
