I am surprised about 2 things:
1) Apple's intention to replace the whole Mac line up. Especially the Mac Pro is a very capable machine. That will without doubt be a big challenge to match or even exceed.
2) They will release first ARM based Macs this year instead of next year. I expected first ARM based Macs to be released in 2021.
