Tim Cook says Apple 'desktop' PCs still count, but will they be Mac Pros?

Apple CEO Tim Cook is in the news today for some comments he told Apple staffers during a recent Q&A about the future of the Mac and president-elect Donald Trump. According to a transcript obtained by TechCrunch, Cook responded to a question about updating Apple’s only pure desktop PC, known as the Mac Pro – which was last updated nearly 3 years ago – that the “desktop is very strategic for us.” He also said the “we have great desktops in our roadmap.” What he didn’t say was that those “desktops” would be Mac Pros, leading to speculation the line could come to an end in favor of, perhaps, an iMac Pro, or something altogether new. Also, Cook was asked why he met with Trump last week at the big “tech summit,” when he’s not a Trump supporter and photos showed him looking clearly less than pleased to be there. His response in a nutshell: it’s better to engage with the new administration and try to shape policy, than stand on the sidelines. You can read his full response here.
