> Apple is still selling the Mac Pro [1], which is Intel based.

I wouldn't take that as any kind of promise it's gonna be maintained by them for an acceptable amount of time.

Up until last month when they announced the new Apple Watch SE, their entry-level watch was the Series 3 which you could still purchase even though it didn't get updated to watchOS 9. Sometimes they just continue to offer a product because some people might still buy it.

Yeah, still selling the Apple Watch Series 3 wasn’t a good look for Apple, no doubt.

But it’s one thing to sell a $249 watch that won’t get the latest operating system update versus a $6000 Mac Pro. Those customers would be super unhappy if the next operating system doesn’t run on it.
