Hrm.. Folks here keep acting like this means Apple still doesn't get the Pro market (or that there is still a pro market).. This really seems to me to be a "what can we get out sooner" product released as a stopgap to next year's preannounced new Mac Pro. I suppose it's still valid to fault them for the reality of their product line and for having gotten themselves into this position in the first place, but I think it's pretty clear that this is not Apple's actual attempt to fully pent-up demand for a good traditional workstation from Apple.
