Apple's new Mac Pro isn't coming until 2019, but that's probably for the best

In an unusual admission last year, Apple announced work had begun on a new Mac Pro. A do-over, if you will, after it designed itself into a corner with the trash can-looking cylindrical computer.

Apple never promised a new Mac Pro for 2018 — SVP of worldwide marketing Phil Schiller only said it would "take longer than this year [2017] to do — and now we know he wasn't kidding: The new Mac isn't coming until 2019.

Yeah, it's a bummer we'll all have to wait that long, but it should mean Apple will have more time to design a machine that won't turn off professionals.
