Hi,
With all the justified attention to the new Phase One cameras, this could have gone under the radar :
http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2015/06/thunderbolt-3-embraces-usb-type-c-connector-doubles-bandwidth-to-40gbps/The best: 1. Shared connector with USB (USB-C)
2. Actual protocol support for USB 3.1
3. Support for power.
The not so good: 1. No support for HDMI.
2. Display port 1.2
Mac Pro: Nobody is mentioning the Mac Pro, not Apple, nor most bloggers, not even reporters (months) . The ARS reporter refer to the MacBook pro like a possible implementation, but, as is now common, not to the Mac Pro.
If you are thinking on buying the machine I will not do so until I learn that the machine has a future.
The current machine can be improved (by example the 3.3ghz 8 core 130W has a turbo bust of 4ghz) but changing the processor architecture will not work because of socket differences. We have tests for 3th party memory and fast SSDs (40% faster

The GPUs are a dead end at the moment.
If I were Apple I will update the machine, even if not all parts for the dream machine are ready ( HBM graphics, thunderbolt 3, next generation Xeons)
Just like they did with the 15" macbook pro.
Best regards
