Who edits 4K video with 256GB of storage space?

A small SSD like that would be likely used to install the OS and other software. I thought it was obvious that they're assuming you'll use external thunderbolt storage for the purposes of video editing.

Pushing 4k output at the same time as accessing a Thunderbolt RAID array to actually edit the video at the same time is not a terribly good idea.

Seriously, it's a massive cock up.

Don't these have multiple thunderbolt ports which means you wouldn't have to push a display down the same thunderbolt port as the one you're using to access RAID storage.
 
I want a new MacPro and have it just play me music.

Me + my new MacPro will go out on a date and everyone will love my cool musician friend.

What? It has 6 thunderbolt ports and I guarantee there's enough controllers/buses/bandwidth for everything you outlined above and more
 
New Garageband looks great. I hope the update is today and it's free.
 
For what you get, yes, its a nice price. Of course, there is zero customization that can be done, so what you buy is what you get.

According to the pictures you can replace the PCIe SSDs and the RAM. They talked about the SSDs being user replaceable (just gotta find one looking like that :P) and the RAM DIMMs looked like regular low profile DIMMs .

It is still an Intel X79 mobo just with a custom layout.

I just find it odd they keep pressing on the read/write speed. It's not like Final Cut loads that slowly. You would expect that that was for BIG data transfers and going all external sounds like a mess.
 
Wish the drummer was on Ipad version.

Smart drums just isn't good enough. The 16 tracks on my old iPad is pretty fucking cool though.
 
Worried about the fat iPad's they're using in the presentation.

They usually use the up to date hardware right?

Burn that shirt. French cuffs are the worst.

Frenchcuffs are traditionally very very very formal and should only be worn with a suit. Period.
 
Assembled in USA

Half the parts come from China, Africa and the Middle East

What, do you expect Apple to build a bunch of factories and fabricate the parts themselves? I don't see how you can slight them for this. The parts required are simply not manufactured in the United States.
