The only platform not yet supported is the Mac Pro, although there probably isn’t much left to do. No, not the “MacBook Pro”, but the “Mac Pro” – the one that looks like a cheese grater and costs thrice as much.

I've always wondered what sort of look they were going for.

I remember seeing it and thinking "No, this can't be real. No way Apple actually did this."

Edit: I just checked and if you apply all upgrades, the total hardware cost is $12,348. That's 3.5th the price of the future  Vision Pro

Did they just forget to crop the whole thing? It looks even more hideous with the grey background on the black background.

My browser is forcing dark mode on it and the picture is not transparent.

That's what i'm saying. I looked for a CPU cooler lastly and Noctua & co. (all with dark webpage) all neatly cut their product image on transparent. But Apple can't bother for their overpriced cheesegrater.
