VIDEO: Unboxing and Taking a First Look Inside the 2019 Mac Pro

We are hard at work filming the unboxing of the New Mac Pro, but I thought we could at least start posting a few pictures to hold you over.

In March of 1989, while working at CERN laboratories in Geneva, Computer Scientist Tim Berners-Lee proposed an information management system to help solve the problems associated with document retrieval and control. "Vague but exciting" were the words that his boss, Mike Sendall, wrote at the top of his submission. And so the World Wide Web was born – as a vague concept of document sharing based on a distributed hypertext system.
