The first actually usable Digital Audio Workstation ever made way back in the early 90s to replace the big ass analog audio mixing and recording consoles and add the ability to unto actions (which was impossible with analog tape recording). Thus, it became an industry standard and the new, heavily updated versions are still used in professional studios.
However, by now, with more and more new DAWs being made (such as Ableton Live, Cubase, Reaper, Studio One, etc.), many producers have been switching from Pro Tools due to Pro Tools' pricing being horribly unjustified, workflow being clunky, performance being poorly optimized in comparison and the whole system being too restricted and buggy. And it's only a matter of time before it's not an "industry standard" anymore.

Get the Pro Toolsmug. A turbo tool is someone who exceeds the normal boundaries of a tool in every way. A turbo tool usually will not know that they are being used; normally by the opposite sex. Can also be known as a super tool

Get the Palmer Toolmug. An insurance term for inland marine coverage also commonly used by those in the insurance industry as an insult. A tool is an individual that tries too hard to impress - a floater is a turd that refuses to be flushed.

Get the Air Toolmug. In woodworker's terminology: to Gloat is to be overly excited about a bargain used tool purchase, or wanting to brag and show off a recently acquired product. To put "Gloat" in your thread title, this is a modest means of warning warning others that they may get jealous over your new tool.
"This is my first tool Gloat" (The poster then shows a picture of a several hundred dollar machine they bought on Craigslist for 80% off the closest resale price)
