Mac Pro with $400 wheels maxed out = $52,599

For $500 more you get the...Rackintosh...

Apple provides a rack-mount version of the Mac Pro. It's not really a datacenter proper product, although it could be used that way. It's more a form to fit your own set up where you try to consolidate your project hardware into a rack.

Mac Pro case SCREW UP!
Dec 15, 2019
Peter Paul Chato
248- I think Apple screwed up the Mac Pro case. So much time. So much effort. So many people with their grubby paws on it and they screwed it up. The Dune Case Pro got it right! Can hardly wait to get it.

Apple is Now Selling Mac Pro Wheels Kit and Feet Kit for $699 and $299


Apple is now selling the wheels and feet separately for the 2019 Mac Pro via individual kits. However, individual kits are pretty expensive as well much like the Mac Pro itself. If you're looking to get them for your machine, you will have to shed a couple of hundred dollars for each. Scroll down for more details on the pricing.

 

Here save a crapload

 

The Apple wheels is still a hot topic The Rover Pro lets you easily put your Mac Pro where you want it while safely preserving your floor's finish.



OWC Releases Rover Pro Wheels Kit for Apple Mac Pro: $199 Against Apple's $699
PRESS RELEASE Yesterday, 15:13

OWC; a leading zero emissions Mac and PC technology company and one of the world's most respected providers of Memory, External Drives, SSDs, Mac & PC docking solutions and performance upgrade kits reveals the new OWC Rover Pro - a toolless, patent-pending made in the USA design that allows users to add wheels to the 2019 Mac Pro in under two minutes. Factory-finish, matching stainless-steel housings feature 360-degree articulating wheels with non-marring soft rubber tread install and include stops to keep your Mac Pro in place and offer the freedom of mobility when needed.

The OWC Rover Pro is the innovative mobility solution for the 2019 Mac Pro. The patent-pending design enables your Mac Pro to go "wheels on/wheels off" in under two minutes while saving time and money vs the factory wheel kit. No tools, no hassle, no worry: simply place your Mac Pro's factory feet into the Rover Pro's polished stainless-steel housings and secure with a few hand twists. When you're done moving your Mac Pro around, the Rover Pro allows quick and easy conversion back to the factory feet for stationary use.

 

I love that apple fans are claiming the Surface Duo is "highway Robbery" when apple ripps them so bad with a 1000.00 monitor stand. Really? a monitor without a stand. Then gouge you 500 bucks, oops, sorry, 499, for a set of wheels for your overpriced desktop. LOVE IT. So, spend that 1400 bucks you would spend on the Surface Duo at apple and get absolutely nothing of any computing value or power.

 

maxed out wheels for maxed out $$$

https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2020/08/19/apple-reaches-2-trillion-market-cap.html

 

Maxed out cables for maxed out dollars. Ha ha ha.

 

speaking of apple, market capitalization, and dollars... turns out you dont have to have a product as valuable as fortnite to be on apple's radar when it comes to giving them their 30% cut..even a free open source platform like Wordpress, with buried, intentionally-hidden potential for monetization which provides a slight possibility of generating nomimal income, offers the opportunity for apple to demand a share

 

Yep, greed.
