Putting the new round Mac Pro back in a box.

For people going on the road a lot, that is a pretty smart design solution.

I can see them selling a lot of those. If you look at the Chase Jarvis workflow solution based on Xserves which are no longer available then these would make a much simpler rack mounted server solution than desktop MacPro. It also has back to front rack cooing which seems to be the way servers are going. Thanks for sharing.

It makes me rethink upgrading my current Mac Pro. The new one with no internal drive bays was a no-starter for me. Having to use external Thunderbolt connected NAS is also a very limiting approach as my network is 1GB Ethernet for all my computers and servers. Sad that this aspect of Job's obsession with form over function is still affecting product design at Apple. It is like the original Mac that I owned that did not have enough cooling with its sealed enclosure to add a single hard drive. Apple keeps giving its business customers fewer and fewer choices and I keep buying more and more Windows computers as a result.
