The Mac Pro Wheels kit was introduced in 2020, and allowed Mac Pro owners to add wheels to their machine after purchase. The Mac Pro could be bought with a wheel option for an additional $400, but the lower price was because opting for wheels removed the $300 feet.
Apple's kit included a 1/4-inch to 4mm hex bit for installing the wheels, and an installation guide.
Apple also sold a $300 Mac Pro Feet Kit for users who ordered wheels but wanted to swap to standard feet. That kit has also been discontinued. The Mac Pro and its accessories have been removed from Apple's website entirely, and old links now redirect to the online Apple Store.
For Mac Pro owners who want to switch to wheels but are now unable to do so, OWC sells a less expensive Rover Pro wheels kit for $200.
Apple has discontinued the Mac Pro and has removed the machine from its website, reports 9to5Mac. Apple said it does not plan to design a new version of the Mac Pro, and no new model will be coming in the future.
The Mac Pro was last updated in 2023, which was when Apple added an M2 Ultra Apple silicon chip, but the chassis has not been refreshed since 2019. Apple redesigned the Mac Pro to be more modular in 2019 after failing with its "innovative" trashcan Mac Pro, but the machine has never been mainstream due to its $6,999 starting price.
Apple has largely replaced the Mac Pro with the Mac Studio, a device that is smaller and uses newer Apple silicon chips. The Mac Studio is now Apple's high-end desktop machine designed for professional use.
The current Mac Studio features an M3 Ultra chip, though it is expected to get an M5 Ultra refresh later this year. Apple's desktop lineup also includes the Mac mini and the iMac.
The Mac Pro's downfall started in 2013 when Apple introduced a radical cylindrical design that turned out to be a major mistake. The Mac Pro's components were mounted around a central thermal dissipation core and cooled with a single fan that pulled air from under the case, through the core, and out of the top of the machine. It was quiet, but not efficient.
When Apple announced the 2013 Mac Pro, Phil Schiller infamously said "Can't innovate anymore, my ass," in response to critics who complained about the Mac Pro's lack of updates and Apple's failure to create products for pro users.
Unfortunately, the 2013 Mac Pro's design did not include PCIe expansion slots for graphics cards and other hardware, with expansion handled through Thunderbolt 2 ports. The design also did not account for future updates in GPU technology, leaving Apple unable to add larger graphics cards and other components to the device.
Apple ended up apologizing to its pro user base and said the 2013 design was thermally constrained in a way that made upgrades impossible. It took Apple until 2019 to unveil the current Mac Pro, which adopted a more standard tower form factor with eight PCIe slots.
After the 2019 launch, the Mac Pro got an Apple silicon chip in 2023, and that's it. There have been three Mac Pro updates in the last 13 years, so it's not surprising to see the Mac Pro retired. The Mac Studio offers almost all of the same capabilities as the Mac Pro, with the exception of PCIe expansion slots.
Gurman revealed all of this information in a live Q&A call today on the Bloomberg website, where listeners were invited to ask him anything about Apple.
Of course, the Apple Watch Ultra did usher in an all-new design when it launched in 2022, but that model has only received iterative design changes since.
A redesign is not necessary just for the sake of change, but users who are looking forward to something new might have to be patient, as it was recently rumored that a major Apple Watch redesign will not arrive for at least two more years.
On a live Q&A call today, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman said Apple is planning to release a new full-sized HomePod alongside new HomePod mini and Apple TV models.
Accordingly, new HomePod, HomePod mini, and Apple TV models should be released this year.
In his Power On newsletter last weekend, Gurman said new versions of the Apple TV and HomePod mini at a minimum have been "ready" since last year, and on the call today he explicitly said "yes" to a new full-sized HomePod coming as well.
Inventory of the Apple TV, HomePod mini, and full-sized HomePod is once again "running low" at Apple's retail stores around the world.
As spotted by Pedro Marques, some HomePod mini configurations are not available until as late as May 8 in Toronto, Canada. This is an oddly far away date, and it may suggest that Apple is no longer manufacturing the current HomePod mini.
Earlier rumors claimed the next Apple TV would be equipped with the A17 Pro chip, which is the oldest chip that supports Apple Intelligence. The device is also expected to feature Apple's N1 chip for Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6, and Thread.
As for the HomePod mini, it is expected to use an Apple Watch's S9 chip or newer, but it is not entirely clear how that chip would be capable enough to support the revamped Siri powered by Apple Intelligence. Other rumored features include the N1 chip, improved sound quality, a newer Ultra Wideband chip, and a red color option.
Apple is evaluating a 200-megapixel telephoto camera sensor that could potentially ship in an iPhone as soon as next year, according to Digital Chat Station, a leaker on Chinese social media platform Weibo with a decent track record.
In a post shared today, the leaker said Apple is actively testing a 200-megapixel 1/1.2" sensor similar to the one rumored for Oppo's upcoming Find X9 Ultra.
On the already-released Find X9 Pro, Oppo debuted a 200-megapixel periscopic telephoto lens with a large 1/1.56" sensor that's far bigger than typical zoom cameras. An earlier leak by Digital Chat Station suggests Oppo's upcoming Ultra model will push this further by introducing a 1/1.28" sensor.
The leaker's latest claim is a notable development. In January, they said 200-megapixel camera sensors were being discussed in Apple's supply chain, but that they had not appeared in engineering prototypes. At the time, Apple's development work was said to remain focused on refining its existing 48-megapixel systems.
January was also the month that Morgan Stanley reported Apple is working to bring a 200-megapixel camera to the iPhone as soon as 2028.
Samsung introduced a 200-megapixel rear camera on its Galaxy S23 Ultra in 2023, and the follow-up models also have one. With a 200-megapixel camera, an iPhone would be able to shoot photos with greater detail. The increased megapixel count would also result in higher-resolution photos, which can be cropped further and printed at larger sizes without a loss of image quality.
In early 2027, Apple is expected to release the regular iPhone 18 as part of a new split-launch cycle, with next-generation Pro models following during the usual September time frame. Next year could also usher in a 20th anniversary iPhone, which could be either a Pro equivalent or perhaps a higher-tier premium model, similar to Apple's iPhone X.
OpenProject offers both a powerful Community edition and Enterprise plans tailored to different organizational needs. This often raises the question of which option is the best choice for your team or organization. While the Community edition is fully functional on its own, some teams require professional support, specific Enterprise add-ons, or Cloud hosting.
In this article, you will learn about the differences between Community and Enterprise, and how to easily upgrade or get started with an Enterprise plan.
Since OpenProject is free (as defined by the Free Software Foundation) and open source software, you can download and run the software on your own infrastructure. It can be used free of charge in the Community edition. This edition is a fully functional project and task management solution and is used by teams and organizations of all sizes.
At the same time, some organizations rely on personal, reliable support when running OpenProject in business-critical or complex environments. Providing this kind of professional support requires dedicated resources and clear responsibilities. The Enterprise edition exists to offer exactly that, while ensuring that OpenProject remains sustainable and fully open source for everyone.
What is the difference between the Community edition and the Enterprise edition?
The OpenProject Community edition is free to use, fully open source, and provides a comprehensive set of project and task management features. It can be used without restrictions on the number of users or projects and is suitable for many teams and organizations as it is.
The Enterprise edition builds on the Community edition. It adds professional support and optional Enterprise add-ons for organizations with higher or more specific requirements, for example when OpenProject is used in business-critical environments or when additional services are needed. The Enterprise edition does not replace the Community edition, but extends it.
In short, the difference is not about access to the software itself. Both editions are fully open source and highly functional. The key difference lies in professional support, Enterprise add-ons, and additional service options.

Important
Support is the essence of OpenProject Enterprise: It is important to know that while the OpenProject Community edition is free and fully functional, it does not include personal support. Upgrade to get reliable, high-touch support from OpenProject senior support engineers with expert knowledge about running the software in business-critical environments. We are English, German, and French speaking!
What are Enterprise add-ons?
Enterprise add-ons are optional extensions that build on top of the OpenProject Community edition. They are designed to support more advanced or specific requirements that go beyond basic project and task management needs.
All Enterprise add-ons are developed as open source software. They are not a separate product, but integrate seamlessly into OpenProject and can be enabled as part of an Enterprise plan. Importantly, the Community edition remains fully functional without these add-ons.
Enterprise add-ons are therefore best understood as complementary enhancements. They allow organizations to extend OpenProject where needed, without changing the core principles of openness, transparency, and long-term maintainability. Still, the main benefit of the OpenProject Enterprise edition is the professional support.
Watch this video to learn about our current Enterprise add-ons:
Community first
OpenProject values a balance between community spirit and financial sustainability, which is a key element in OpenProject’s high user-friendliness and, for example, its comprehensive documentation, available free of charge to all users. One example of OpenProject’s commitment to the Community is that some Enterprise add-ons are released for the community edition over time.
As an example, here’s a list of Enterprise add-ons that have been released to the Community edition in the past:
Why does OpenProject offer different Enterprise plans?
Organizations using OpenProject vary widely in size, structure, and requirements. Some mainly need professional support to operate OpenProject reliably, while others require specific Enterprise add-ons, additional services, or long-term guarantees for complex or regulated environments.
To address these different needs, OpenProject offers multiple Enterprise plans. This makes it possible to keep entry prices low for organizations that primarily need support, while also offering plans tailored to larger organizations with more specific or demanding requirements. The goal is not to bundle everything into a single plan, but to provide appropriate options for different use cases. Enterprise plans therefore reflect a fair and flexible approach: organizations only pay for the level of support and add-ons they actually need.
All OpenProject editions are fully built on GPLv3-licensed free and open source software and OpenProject is not an open core model. Enterprise plans are paid because they include professional support and services, not because the software itself is closed or proprietary.
How can you upgrade from the Community edition to OpenProject Enterprise?
Upgrading from the OpenProject Community edition to an Enterprise plan is straightforward and does not require a migration or a new installation. Your existing data, projects, and configurations remain unchanged.
Enterprise plans can be evaluated via a trial that activates the Enterprise add-ons and professional support for a limited time. If the trial ends without a subscription, the installation automatically returns to the Community edition.
This makes it easy to explore OpenProject Enterprise at your own pace and decide whether professional support or specific Enterprise add-ons are the right fit for your organization.

How can you get started with OpenProject Enterprise?
If you want to explore OpenProject Enterprise in more detail, there are several ways to get started. You can review the available Enterprise plans to understand which options best fit your organization’s needs, including professional support and optional Enterprise add-ons.
If you are already using the Community edition, you can start an Enterprise trial directly from your installation to evaluate the Enterprise add-ons and support in your own environment. Organizations that are new to OpenProject can also choose an Enterprise plan from the start, including hosted options.
If you have questions or specific requirements, the OpenProject team is available to help you find the right setup and plan for your organization.
Weeks on from the first floods in northern Colombia, thousands of people remain without many of the basics and facing further problems. Find out what you can do to help.
The northern Colombian city of Montería was hit by extreme weather earlier this year, as exceptionally heavy rains flooded the city completely. Thousands of people in the capital of Córdoba have lost everything in the deluge.
While the relentless cycle of news marches on to discuss the upcoming elections, the families affected cannot. Their lives remain in ruins, with further problems coming as the water recedes. Most of the department is relatively poor, with the affected communities overwhelmingly from those in need even previous to this disaster.
The rains have lessened in severity, with fewer downpours and the water is slowly draining, but it will take years to undo the damage that it has wrought. The immediate emergency may be over for the time being, but the recuperation process will take long years to complete.
Thousands of people need help, many in extreme risk
What can you do to help those affected by the Córdoba floods?
Today, the charitable organisation Colombia Unida por Córdoba is launching a donation drive to help those hit by the rains to rebuild their lives as quickly as possible after the deluge. You can donate here to make your contribution to the campaign.
The money raised will go towards rehabilitation and reconstruction of households, schools and medical centres on the one hand and humanitarian assistance such as temporary housing and medical care on the other.
In the short term, thousands of people need immediate help, whether in terms of shelter or medically. Moving into the medium term there will be a need to both rebuild and restock a range of buildings to get people back to their regular lives.
Within the range of services that are needed by the communities under threat are not only physical and monetary assistance but also psychological help for those that have lost everything. Many farmers will need specialist advisory services to reestablish their fields.
The campaign seeks to bring Colombia together in order to help out a department battered by the effects of extreme weather, something that has grown in magnitude in recent years. It is a movement run both for and by Colombians.
The aid project will require everyone to pull together
Full transparency and auditing is at the core of the project, meaning you can check where the money is really going, unlike some of the larger international organisations. Moreover, the organisers are people who know the situation from firsthand experience.
The Cruz Roja Colombiana are also taking donations of clothes and building materials at their Salitre centre (Av.68 #68b-31), and you can donate money directly on this link. The local government in Bogotá, too, is organising donation drives on this link.
What’s the situation on the ground?
The capital of Córdoba, Montería, is the worst hit major city in the country, with thousands of people evacuated in the city and surrounds. Over 200,000 people have been directly affected by the rains.
A flooded barrio in Montería, Colombia
Everyone has been hit hard – 365 barrios across 25 muncipios. Hundreds of farms are underwater, houses have been inundated and 15 Indigenous reservations are among the list of those now facing an uncertain and perilous future.
A lot of infrastructure is in ruins too, with over 2,000km of roads submerged and hundreds of schools and medical centres unusable for at least the medium term and no sign of what comes next. Córdoba is a relatively poor department, without the resources that Medellín or Bogotá can call upon.
Sadly, politics have come into play here too, with Petro clashing with regional governor Erasmo Zuleta over the management of the department. The pair have had a lot of differences over the years. He also said he was initially unable to land in Córdoba due to the risk of an attack.
More reasonable are Petro’s claims that the situation has been exacerbated by water management systems such as reservoirs. These have diverted normal water flows and critically diminished the region’s ability to handle pressure from unusual weather patterns. Zuleta’s response is that the national government oversees the Urrá hydro plant.
The Caribbean coast has been hard hot elsewhere, with Uraba Antioqueño, La Guajira and Sucre joining Córdoba, and the Amazon and Pacific regions have also seen unusually high rainfall for the start of the year.
Even when the rains stop, the long term effects will take years to overcome. Already, bad actors are starting to take advantage of the situation, with desperate houseowners paying through the nose for boaters to rescue their belongings before thieves arrive.
Fields that are now underwater will take an age to fully drain and even longer to recover from the damage currently being wrought upon them. Thousands upon thousands of hectares of farmland will be unusable for the near future.
President Gustavo Petro on Tuesday declared three days of national mourning in Colombia following a military plane crash on Monday which killed 69 soldiers.
The accident occurred at the Puerto Leguízamo airport in Putumayo, a region located in the southwest of the country, involving a C-130 Hercules aircraft normally used to transport troops and humanitarian aid to remote regions.
According to the latest official reports, at least 69 soldiers and crew members were killed in the disaster. The military transport plane, belonging to the Colombian Aerospace Force (FAC), was carrying over 120 people when it smashed onto the grounds of a nearby farm just after takeoff.
During the period of national mourning, Petro confirmed that flags will fly at half-mast and military honors will be given to the victims of the tragedy and their families.
He decretado tres días de duelo en todo el territorio nacional en memoria de los 69 uniformados pertenecientes al Ejército, Fuerza Aeroespacial y la Policía Nacional que perdieron la vida en el accidente aéreo en Puerto Leguízamo – Putumayo el pasado 23 de marzo.
Many households are grieving the loss of their children, but one family in particular mourns the loss of two: brothers Santiago and Daniel Esteban Arias. Originally from Puerto Libertador, in the Caribbean department of Córdoba.
Monday’s crash is one of the worst aviation tragedies in the country’s recent history. In 2016, a plane carrying players from Brazil’s Chapecoense soccer team crashed into the mountains outside Medellín, killing over 70 people.
Lamentamos profundamente informar que, tras culminar las labores de búsqueda y rescate, hoy confirmamos con dolor los nombres de nuestros héroes que ofrendaron su vida en el accidente aéreo en Puerto Leguízamo, #Putumayo.
— Ejército Nacional de Colombia (@COL_EJERCITO) March 24, 2026
In Puerto Leguízamo, survivors of the military plane crash were transferred to specialized medical centers across the country.
Authorities are investigating the causes of the accident but have dismissed preliminary claims of an attack by guerrilla forces active in the region.
The Mayor of Puerto Leguízamo, Luis Emilio Bustos Morales, told local media, including Blu Radio and Noticias RCN, that “they have many hypotheses.”
He noted that among them, “there is talk that they were carrying too much weight” or “that the runway was too short for them.”
During the emergency, residents used their own motorcycles to evacuate the survivors before official help arrived; some of them were also injured by ammunition exploding in the flames.
The medical center known as ‘Hospital Militar Central’, located in the capital Bogotá, confirmed that a local rescue worker is among those being treated there.
President Petro expressed his gratitude through his X account, stating that “this is how a nation is built.” He thanked the local citizens who rushed to save the survivors. He also highlighted the soldiers who ran to save others during the disaster, calling their actions a “beautiful proof of love and solidarity.”
The painful moments were detailed by soldier Mauro Peñaranda, who survived and described the scene as the aircraft went down to local media outlets: “It was leaning to one side, and there was a weird noise (…) the plane was creaking,” he told RTVC. Mauro also stated that they did not receive clear instructions from the cockpit during the situation.
“I honestly don’t even know how I got out of there… I just jumped and got out,” he said.
The governments of Ecuador, Panama, France, and the United States, among others, also offered their condolences to the Colombian military forces and the victims’ families.

In his Power On newsletter today, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman said new versions of the Apple TV and HomePod mini have been "ready" since last year, but he reiterated that Apple has held off on releasing them until the more personalized version of Siri and other Apple Intelligence upgrades are released later this year.
Inventory of the Apple TV, HomePod mini, and full-sized HomePod is once again "running low" at Apple's retail stores around the world, according to Gurman, but it is unclear if this means anything since the revamped Siri has yet to debut.
Gurman previously reported that Apple was aiming to release the personalized Siri features in either iOS 26.5 or iOS 27. The first developer beta of iOS 26.5 could be available in late March or early April, so at least some of the Siri upgrades might be just a week or two away, unless they are entirely held back until iOS 27 debuts in June.
Accordingly, if the new Apple TV and HomePod mini models remain tied to the Siri upgrades arriving in iOS 26.5 or iOS 27, then Apple should announce the devices at any point between late March and the end of September this year.
Earlier rumors claimed the next Apple TV would be equipped with the A17 Pro chip, which is the oldest chip that supports Apple Intelligence. The device is also expected to feature Apple's N1 chip for Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6, and Thread.
As for the HomePod mini, it is expected to use an Apple Watch's S9 chip or newer, but it is not entirely clear how that chip would be capable enough to support the revamped Siri powered by Apple Intelligence. Other rumored features include the N1 chip, improved sound quality, a newer Ultra Wideband chip, and a red color option.
