Apple finally announced the launch of its most powerful computer to date: The iMac Pro will be available to buy on Thursday, starting at $5,000.

With the new iMac Pro comes special accessories, including a beautiful new Space Gray color option for its Magic Keyboard. It even comes with a black Lightning cable. At the time of purchase, you'll have the option to choose from a Space Gray Magic Trackpad 2 or the Space Gray Magic Mouse 2, too.

Sounds great! So how do you get a hold of those new Space Gray accessories? Well, that question leads to another question: Do you have a spare $5,000? Because you'll need to buy the iMac Pro to get them. So far, Apple's new Space Gray accessories aren't available to buy on its online store.

But look at the bright side: At least you get an awesome and powerful all-in-one computer with a 5K resolution screen to sweeten the deal!

Yes, I'm being facetious and I'm certainly not suggesting someone buy a $5,000 computer just for its accessories. I suppose it's Apple's way of making the new Space Gray accessories more "exclusive" in the same way last year's Product (RED) iPhone 7 only came in the more expensive 128GB option. And of course, you don't have to drop $5,000 to get these accessories — they might show up on sites like eBay at some point, but don't expect them to be easy to find, or cheap to obtain.

At the same time, a Space Gray keyboard and mouse would sure go nicely with a Space Gray MacBook Pro, which doesn't come with exclusive accessories. With the Space Gray MacBook Pros in mind, it's somewhat odd that Apple isn't offering its Space Gray accessories separately.

Here's to hoping that Space Gray accessories will, one day, become available to buy without dropping $5,000.
