iMac Pro - Insane Cost + Insane power + All-in-one enclosure

in #imacpro6 years ago

 Apple is known for its advanced engineering and design. The new iMac  Pro is spectacular in that department, somehow packing an insane amount  of power into its all-in-one enclosure. 

But it doesn’t come cheap. If you haven’t looked already, a decked out iMac Pro costs a pretty penny….. lots and lots of pretty pennies. 

The starting price is a not-exactly-cheap $4,999,  but if you’re planning to configure Apple’s all-in-one workstation with  all the bells and whistles, things can get pretty crazy. If you include  Intel’s massive non-gaming 18-core Xeon W processor when it’s available early next year, you’re looking at more than $13,000. That’s almost the price of a new, compact car.
