I agree, and I'm eager to see what we get in the rumored "new Mac Pro tower" that is supposed to be announced some time this year. Still, the iMac Pro can be considered a good buy if you do like many Apple users and sell it after a few years for a hefty percentage of the purchase price, using the funds to offset its replacement. It's how I progressed from a PowerBook Pismo G3 -> eMac G4 -> Mac mini G4 -> two Intel Mac minis (2006 & 2011) -> Mac Pro tower, only keeping the first gen Intel Mac mini when I moved away from the platform for daily use. Because I recovered at least half the purchase price of each successive unit (again minus the first Intel mini) I was able to upgrade for more or less the same cost as a comparable PC workstation. Conversely, good luck selling a used custom built PC for pennies on the dollar even if you used top of the line components. Even name brand, quality PC workstations don't have a healthy used market; eBay is full of 2016 era corporate machines that were $800 new, now going for $200 or less.
