>I think we designed ourselves into a bit of a thermal corner, if you will. We designed a system that we thought with the kind of GPUs that at the time we thought we needed, and that we thought we could well serve with a two GPU architecture… that that was the thermal limit we needed, or the thermal capacity we needed. But workloads didn’t materialize to fit that as broadly as we hoped.
>Being able to put larger single GPUs required a different system architecture and more thermal capacity than that system was designed to accommodate. And so it became fairly difficult to adjust.

They are making it "modular", so you can replace and upgrade individual components
Tim Cook claims this revolutionary design overhaul will take more than a year to complete
Literally can't make this shit up
>Getting to the heart of matters, Apple invited a small contingent of press – includingJohn Gruberand TechCrunch’sMatthew Panzarino– out to one of their labs to discuss the future of the Mac Pro and pro users in general. The message out of Apple is an odd one: they acknowledge that they erred in both the design and handling of the Mac Pro (as much as Apple can make such an acknowledgement, at least), and that they will do better for the next Mac Pro. However that Mac Pro won’t be ready until 2018 or later, and in the meantime Apple still needs to assuage their pro users, to prove to them that they are still committed to the Mac desktop and still committed to professional use cases.

Fuck... if they brought those back and upgraded them I would buy it in a heartbeat. Now we just need to write to Apple and bitch about the soldered components in the MacBooks.

Until we actually see a new mac pro, I'm not believing.
I also believe he said they are "re-thinking" the whole mac pro.
Perhaps in a year they will say, "We think we can do without it."

Exactly. What's wrong with this? Nothing.
It's tried, true, and trusted.
Just make incremental improvements to allow for modern upgrading.
How hard can this be?
