I think it's extremely important to the hackintosh community that the Mac Pro even continues to exist and that Apple has publicly stated that Pro users are important to them going forward. Sure the prices for the iMac Pro and new Mac Pro are way above what average Mac consumers will pay for a desktop. The great thing is that Apple can still produce these even if they don't sell in huge numbers like iPads and iPhones. Apple knows that those that make a living, earn money from using their Macs, will pay top dollar. So I really don't care about the higher prices as long as Apple stays with the Intel x86 architecture. If I can build my own PC and install macOS on it I'm more than happy. I don't see iMac Pros and Mac Pros switching to ARM based, A series chips exclusively any time soon, if ever.
I doubt that Apple will ever publicly acknowledge the hackintosh community but here's what Tim Cook might say if they did. (try to hear the sound of Tim Cook's voice as you read this)
"These are people, from every race, climate and culture around the world that love macOS so much they are willing to build their own machines to run the world's most advanced operating system on them. They spend hundreds of hours tirelessly reading and researching ways to make macOS run flawlessly on their computers. They even modify older Apple hardware such as the classic Mac Pro tower, iMac and Mac Mini because they absolutely love the design of Apple products. These are the dreamers, the tinkerers that embody the spirit of what Apple was like in the very beginning. A small group of people who have a vision to create beautiful products that are a joy to use. They are the creative artists, film makers, photographers and coders that are doing the very best work of their lives. So today, I tip my hat to this global community and say that today, Apple is changing it's End User License Agreement to allow the installation of macOS on non-Apple branded hardware. It's our way of saying thank you to this amazing group of people who are so dedicated to Apple."
Next, the audience at the Steve Jobs theater stands up and gives Cook a five minute long ovation. Many Apple employees that have built their own hackintoshes breathe a sigh of relief. Tonymacx86 members break out the champagne bottles and celebrate.
Should I send the above paragraph to Tim Cook via his email address ? What do you think ?
