I feel like this is where the "Apple in California" way of thinking really shows itself.
If you think about it, Apple really exclusively makes products for the normal consumer market, and then their pro products are exclusively aimed towards the two largest economic sectors in the state: Silicon Valley and Hollywood.
The Mac Pro isn't the Mac Pro, it's the Mac Los Angeles. And the iMac Pro isn't the iMac Pro, it's the iMac San Jose.
In Tim Cook, Phil Schiller's, and the rest of the exec team's heads the rest of the country needing pro might as well get fucked. All the scientists, all the artists, all the people who would love a Surface-type product you can ink with, all the music producers (including me) using iPads who bristled at them removing the headphone jack from that product, all the people doing business work, all the people needing machines for power users, all the starving professionals who need a machine they can upgrade: Apple thinks you can get fucked.
