Mac Pro Turns 20 Today, Five Months After Apple Killed It
Source ↗ 👁 0 💬 0
Apple announced the original Mac Pro 20 years ago today, with the anniversary landing five months after the company discontinued the machine for good.





On August 7, 2006, Apple unveiled the first Mac Pro, powered by two dual-core 64-bit Xeon processors that Apple said made it up to twice as fast as the Power Mac G5 it replaced. It was the last Mac to complete Apple's transition from PowerPC to Intel chips, and it launched with PCI Express expansion slots and a $2,499 starting price.
