This new Mac Pro is almost the sort of thing I always wished Apple would offer in a high-end computer. The one thing I would change would be to eliminate the SSD and, instead, have just the bare minimum storage capacity for only the OS (maybe a removable flash card?). The Pro could be even smaller and somewhat less expensive. All of the expandability, except RAM, would be external with hubs, docks, etc. which could all be placed anywhere…even out of sight, leaving such things as optical drives at hand.

It certainly would be nice if you would tell us what the problem is. Back tracking is not all that easy.
