The Mac Pro was first unveiled back in June at Apple's Worldwide Developer's Conference, WWDC. The cylindrical design was definitely eye catching and the fact that it's assembled right here in the U.S. only adds appeal to Apple's super computer. The redesigned Mac Pro features a design that maximizes cooling through a jet turbine-like system that funnels air through the top opening. It also features an all-black aluminum enclosure, and comes in at under 10-inches tall. The Mac Pro has six Thunderbolt 2power up to three 4k displays, too, and also features two Gigabit Ethernet jacks and an HDMI 1.4 UltraHD out.
