Re: I'm sure this will go over well

Doubling down on secrecy sometimes it allows you to read it like an open book.
There will be a MacPro replacement. It will be a different form.

Apple will not give any clues about new products, especially one that isn't simply an update.

Regarding FCPX Apple has said there will be more features than listed. Secret is what additional features.

I think they won't reveal anything that competitors can start responding to.

For a company that gets copied frequently I don't think they want to give anyone head starts.

It's their business model. Obviously one doesn't have to accept it but one does have to live with that decision if Apple's "secret" turns out being what you'd really want or need.
