Why? Just bring back the cheese grater case and call it a day. No pro needs or wants these fancy designs.
- paulrpotts 10y agoIf I could upvote you 100 times I would. I just want an updated 2008 Pro. It doesn't even have to be the absolute fastest CPUs out there. It just needs to be reliable and fast and ideally quiet too.
- simonh 10y agoWasn't the Cheese Grater a modular design?
- strictnein 10y agoIt was sort of, but you also had pretty direct access to 3 PCI Express slots, 4 pretty standard drive bays (with pretty enclosures), and 4 or 8 memory slots (depending on 1 or 2 CPUs). I'm just guessing by modular design they're talking about something much more complex and unique.
- dgreensp 10y agoThis. Can we remember that Apple is making a box with fans and a motherboard? It takes them five years because they have to be inspired with some original concept that marries form and function, and then deliver something novel and daring -- not just a new computer, but a new kind of computer. This is not in customers' interest, and they are right to be upset.
