The last new Mac Pro was announced back in 2013. You haven't seen a new one since then because Apple is apparently rethinking the professional-level computer and everything that comes with it, according to a roundtable the company held with reporters earlier this week. Phil Schiller, Apple's SVP of worldwide marketing added that since its Pro was a modular system, you can also expect a new Pro display soon. However," You won't see any of these products this year." The team is apparently still working to design a system that can easily and efficiently be upgraded -- one of the biggest issues with the current Mac Pro.
The Pro devices are a smaller part of Apple's PC pie: Schiller noted that desktop make up just 20 percent of the Macs it ships. Apple says its Mac Pro owners are a "single digit percentage."
Regarding the existing model, "We designed ourselves into a bit of a corner," said Craig Federighi, Apple's SVP of Software Engineering. The Pro had a triangular heat-sink that didn't lend itself well to pro-level upgrades. The company was using this meeting to reiterate that its Mac series remains very important to it. Talking to Techcrunch: "The Mac has an important, long future at Apple," added Schiller, "...and if we've had a pause in upgrades and updates on that, we're sorry for that — what happened with the Mac Pro, and we're going to come out with something great to replace it."
"We've asked the team to go and re-architect and design something great for the future that those Mac Pro customers who want more expandability, more upgradability in the future', added Schiller, according to Daring Fireball.
