Moving from a MAC pro workflow to a Wintel (i9 Xenon or AMD) is non trivial you might as well bight the bullet and go threadripper or EPYC now

  >Moving from a MAC pro workflow to a Wintel (i9 Xenon or AMD) is non trivial So what do I earn from "biting the bullet"? I go through a non trivial process for merely the possibility that the iMac Pro might not have continued new models (which will only matter to me in 2-3 years at earlier if I buy it). And that when there's already another Mac Pro model announced for 2018.

    Your laying off the risk of apple either abandoning the pro market or at best ignoring it as it has for the last few years.

I'm not laying off the risk though -- I'm taking the same hit, only voluntarily. My question was meant as: what I get by making the transition before that's actually the case? I can always not take the risk until there's actually a reason.
