Background: Audio engineering and multimedia development, worked previously at the Smithsonian on various projects including an app to make the Eclipse accessible to people who are blind or visually impaired, and a multimedia installation at the National Air and Space Museum. Open to a variety of work from consulting to game dev to backend media processing.
It's designed to be useful for more than one kind of "Pro". The old Mac Pro, for instance, seemed to completely forget about music studios and their professional requirements for Macs. This new machine may seem like overkill to software developers, but as an audio engineer, it's perfect.
I don't even want a 1TB SSD in it, the 256 is perfect to hold the OS, a few DAWs, and all the plugins I could ever want. Everything else gets saved to drives in a toaster anyway. A rackmountable unit with a ton of PCI slots for HDX/Dante cards was on my Christmas list, and I'm not alone- there's a reason they made a point of showing how many HDX cards it can fit in their presentation.
It also looks like an amazing workstation for video editors. I really don't think it's designed for software engineers who make 500k a year.
Or we could just start punishing companies for massive and widely damaging data leaks. AFAIK about GDPR, it wouldn't prevent this. These things keep happening because nothing bad happens to companies that let it happen.
