Re: What if there actually IS a new Mac Pro?

I like the rumors of new Mac Pros using Ivy Bridge:

Supposedly fixes the heat issues and the non-NVidia problem they had been having with the old Mac pros. Despite the fact that Apple makes most of its money in one area doesn't mean they will abandon all of their product lines: if you make a $1 billion a year on one product line versus $10 billion on another, you're not turning your back on $1 billion when you can make $11 billion with both. Maybe the rumor is right and it will be ready Q4 2012, but I think it will be sooner for the first lineup with the faster machines coming out a quarter later in time for NAB 2013 or Supermeet or MacWorld or something like that.

Oh and yes, I really don't like Windows. I think its funny that its called innovation when its still 2-3 years behind the Mac. When Microsoft switches to a UNIX/Linux kernel, I'll consider using it again.
