Genuine question -- how does adding wheels to the Mac Pro add value? I figured most people would just plop it on a desk.
- paulcole 6y agoI worked with a guy who had a DIY walking desk. Part of his setup involved leashing his tower like a dog and taking the whole mess around the block to work out tricky problems. Poor guy would’ve been bound to his desk without the wheels.
- RcouF1uZ4gsC 6y agoI doubt you would want to be dragging a $50k Mac Pro around the block.

- paulcole 6y agoThe guy was a 10x engineer. He was looking into medical tourism to have a feeding tube put in so he could fuel w/ Soylent. Management would consider a $1k set of wheels a bargain to keep him happy.
- lexs 6y agoThis was a funny bit, ...right?
- throwaway9482 6y ago??? He doesn’t sound right to me
- thatsethnz 6y agoIf you work on set or Back stage or on tour. Not all editing and design work is done in an office. I've worked in sound/lighting and we rack mount some machines in wheeled racks so they can be used to test/control/mix on any larger AV rack.
- shawnps 6y agoThanks, that makes sense. If you don't mind me asking, what's your take on the cost of the wheels? As someone who has worked in sound/lighting, are they something you wouldn't have thought twice about buying?
