  If there's a "reinvention of the trash can" it will likely come in the form of a new high end Mac Mini. My prediction is that the real Apple Silicon Mac Pro will be pretty much exactly the same as the current Intel Mac Pro. The big questions in my mind are: 1. Can they match the number of PCI-E lanes? 2. How will they scale up the CPU and GPU to satisfy extreme workloads? Will we see gargantuan Apple Silicon chips or will it be a multi-chip solution? 3. Will Apple compromise RAM performance in order to give us DIMM slots, or will there be some clever trick to combine ultra-fast soldered RAM with regular-fast slotted RAM? 4. Will AMD GPUs be available for acceleration? Will they be available for 3D rendering and driving a monitor? 5. What will become of the Afterburner card? Will it be abandoned, will it be the key to how Apple makes the Mac Pro a performance powerhouse?
