First Mac Pro Unboxing Videos Revealed

With the first review units of the Mac Pro in the wild, FCP.co has posted an actual unboxing video of the device.

The Mac Pro, which is assembled and packaged in Austin, Texas, comes in a sleek black box with a plastic handle at the top. Inside, there is minimalist, environmentally friendly molded foam with the aluminum Mac Pro wrapped in plastic for protection.

Several reviewers have commented on the surprising density of the Mac Pro, saying it is heavier than they expected.

Update: MacFormat also has a 15-minute video showing the unboxing and providing an overview of the machine.

I didn't see anything. I was distracted by that hideous shirt. What was that video about? :p

I was strongly reminded of James May from Top Gear.

As other has said i think the shirt was the most interesting thing about that video...:D
Pretty boring packaging from apple...

Apple is well known for minimalist packaging these days. What did you expect? Diamond encrusted disposable shrink-wrap?

Great! The video has so many subtle messages. I'm sure the hardware is ideal for Windows 8.1 and Linux.

Windows 8.1 and Linux certainly are suitable for a "trash can." :D

Almost more comments from the fashion police than the actual product. Get over his shirt for God's sake.

Windows 8.1 and Linux are the superior OSs on the Mac hw. By comparison, OS X is just a useless toy.

Ok buddy whatever you say, don't forget to tell me when i can run Logic Pro on Linux(or anything of value for that matter).

How did James May get a Mac Pro?

So I, James May, chose the Sensible but powerful MacPro with is innovative sensible aesthetics and reliable pedigree.

Richard hammond turned up with a Water cooled 48 core PC with Led lighting and 12 PCI ports 256gb of Ram that requires the power of a small town.

Jeremy however, as usual went over board and Jerry rigged a turbo boosted 1988 Cray Supercomputer to run on gin and cigarettes.

on that bombshell...

Proven by Linux's installed base of about 1%, mostly guys living in mom's basement, because 99% of computer users are idiots... I guess.
Seriously, I laughed out loud when I read this post.
