What are the custom configuration options for the Apple Silicon Mac Pro models?

All Apple Silicon Mac Pro models can be configured with either a tower or rack-mount case; the rack-mount case is US$500 more than the tower option. Both case types also can have the processor, RAM, and storage custom configured at the time of initial system purchase.

Where can I buy an Apple Silicon Mac Pro?

In the US, you always can buy a new Mac directly from Apple, but you often can get a better deal by buying your new Mac Pro from an Apple Authorized Reseller like site sponsor Adorama. Adorama commonly has deep discounts on recently discontinued models, too.

In the US, for used and refurbished Mac Pros, try site sponsor Other World Computing for bargain prices with free shipping.

In the UK, site sponsor Hoxton Macs sells a good selection of used Macs with a one-year warranty and free next working day delivery.

In Australia, site sponsor Mac City likewise has a variety of used Macs sold at low prices and available with a free warranty and fast shipping across Australia.

Where can I sell an Apple Silicon Mac Pro?

Like selling just about anything else, you probably can make the most money by selling a Mac Pro directly on an online auction or classified site, but doing so is time consuming and may or may not be worth the trouble for you.

If you need to sell a Mac Pro, consider A+ BBB-rated site sponsor Cash for Your Mac. Cash for Your Mac provides an instant cash offer and free and insured FedEx shipping.

Who designed the Apple Silicon Mac Pro?

Naturally, all of Apple's Macs have been designed by hundreds of hardworking employees, but the company's industrial design for many years has been performed entirely in-house by Apple's Industrial Design Group, currently headed by Evans Hankey.

For the Mac Pro's underlying technology, Apple's "Hardware Technologies" group, led by Johny Srouji, deserves a great deal of credit, as well.
