Excellent performance. Virtually silent, even under heavy loads. Ample ports for expansion and connecting accessories, including four USB 3.0, six Thunderbolt 2, an HDMI, and two Gigabit Ethernet ports. Can support up to three 4K displays or six Thunderbolt displays. Small footprint leaves room on your desk for the important stuff, like your NERF gun collection.

Whopping $3,000 base price -- and that doesn't include the 4K or HD display(s) you're going to want to pair with it. Mouse and keyboard sold separately. No optical drive, no extra space for graphics cards or bays for hard drives -- but that's the Apple way.
