      nah friend … the opposite of a victim of marketing campaign … i don’t touch apple devices because of the walled garden they built and the prices they do

      i was mainly talking about the mac pro’s case design and the modular setup … thats extremely appealing in my personal perspective.

      i do not know if they stand the challange of time, but the mac pro for sure impressed me even if i get called a apple-hater in my personal circle of friends

      so don’t mistake me for a fanboy - but i do pay respect for things which imoress me.

      if you check my prev comment you’ll see that i especially point oit that they ask for crazy prices (monitor stand, mac pro wheels, thunderbold cable … god even the whipes carry something like 1000% apple tax) … still the mac pro case seems pretty cool to me

          i do know them … they even get a step further and are wirking on a “box” where you can use your mainboard if someday they offer an updated one for the laptop case, so you can use the old one for a server box or sth

          i do like those as well … i just wanted to make my point that even for a company where i refuse to buy something from, there are some things which impress me
