>Upgradeable components have nothing to do with pro users. Nonsense. If you see a Mac Pro in a recording studio or an edit suite or a VFX house, it's invariably bolted into a Sonnet chassis. Creative professionals need drive bays, rack ears and PCIe slots. They need DSP accelerators, fibre channel interfaces and SPI capture cards. Apple say that the Mac Pro is "built for creativity on an epic scale". They don't mention that most creative professionals need a $1,500 chassis to replace the functionality that the old cheesegrater Mac Pro had. https://www.sonnetstore.com/collections/thunderbolt-expansion-systems/products/xmac-pro-server https://www.sonnetstore.com/collections/thunderbolt-expansio... The scheduled upgrade cycle for some creative professionals is extremely short, because their time is valuable and their workflow is bottlenecked by hardware. Many users considered the Mac Pro to be underpowered at launch, because it has a single CPU socket and only four RAM slots. After five years without an update, many users have either switched to PC or are seriously considering it. The 2019 Mac Pro is make-or-break for Apple in the creative industries. Apple have completely exhausted their goodwill.
