Jobs was a truck user in his famous analogy. As CEO, he clearly didn't do much design or programming or have any true pro needs, but if you see photos of his home office, what do you see? A big honking Mac Pro (and even a scale model on his desk!).
Jobs didn't need a Mac Pro and a huge external monitor, and could have clearly used a laptop or iMac. The fact that he used the company's pro computer in his home office tells you a lot about him and the kinds of computers he liked.
The Mac Pro is very much a Johnny Ive design and idea (and not updating it feels like something that a numbers obsessed CEO like Cook would do). I'm not convinced at all Jobs would have let the Mac Pro flounder like this.
I truly believe that if Steve Jobs were alive today, the Mac Pro would be routinely updated.
