Die-hard Mac Pro user here. I have one "ashtray" at home and one at work. Prefer wired ethernet, wired RAID storage and wired big monitors plus all the ports I need (albeit not super accessible with the new design). I can't imagine how I would do without my desktop computer, I suppose I would need to get an iMac or Mac Mini, but those also seem to be languishing in some small corner cupboard of Cupertino...

I continue to be genuinely enamored with Final Cut Pro, Motion, Logic Pro, Aperture, AirPort Express, Time Capsule, Cinema Display, XServe and the spinny wheel iPod.

Since we're not going back to this golden Apple era anytime soon, it's going to be harder and more stressful to work out how I might achieve the same level of comfort with my technology when it needs replaced. Having to replace my Mac Pro will be one of the harder decisions I have to make.
