I was anxious to see the announcements from the WWDC keynote yesterday, although there were zero surprises. I'd already seen the pics, already knew the name for the Mac Pro - they were all over the Web. A lot of people complain that Apple does not make a low-end desktop system; their more consumer-oriented machines are not really upgradable (mini) nor always practical (iMac, when you already have a monitor).
That being said - they don't really want that market now. If you don't fit the profile of the users they're selling to, they're not (yet) looking to change that.
Now, seeing them, I am on the fence about whether or not a pro desktop makes sense for me. The Pro laptop I have seems to meet my needs for now, but if I get into more intense work w/FCS then I may start to lean towards a tower, something I haven't really needed to do in years. But I am the person who upgrades the system, not its innards. I have three generations of iMacs. My next system may just be the mini, as I am dying to put one on my Prius...
