New Mac Pros!

1:30am Tuesday the 5th, and the Apple online store is down. Routine maintenance or product updates?

New iMacs and MBP were rumored to appear this month..... Finally, a Mac Pro?

Well, WWDC is next Monday, week away. I'm guessing it's just regular maintenance. But, who knows. We will see when the sun rises.

Yeah regulare maintenance.

And the very next day, Apple TV gets a big update, and this.

Gearing up for next Monday!

And it looks like we may be getting new MP's after all. Of course this is only rumor until we hear it from the Apple CEO's mouth.

The stock numbers are unveiled...

Didn't I tell you guys? :evil:

What exactly did you tell us?

A new Mac Pro is coming next week.

Yes, everyone was hoping and making guesses.

I know. Just needed a "told you so" moment today.... At least one.

Did anyone hear the rumor that the MacBookPro is being abandoned? Specifically the 17" model?

Rumors state that Apple is going the AirBook route....

Lucky guesses don't count. It's all rumors until Apple officially says something.

And here are the new model numbers
MD770LL/A – K5BPLUS,BETTER, BTR-USA
MD771LL/A – K5BPLUS,BEST,BTR-USA
MD772LL/A – K5BPLUS,ULTIMATE,BTR-USA


Airbook is fine if they come with the same amount of HD space.

True, but I do love the 17" screen.....

Time will tell.

Nothing on the 17" but here are some more rumors on the 15" Macbook Pro which should be still called Macbook Pro.

New MacBook Pro specs label surfaces: 2560 x 1600 display, USB 3.0 ports, thin as Air

While we obviously cannot confirm these purported technical specifications for the upcoming MacBook Pro revamp, an anonymous MacBook Pro packaging label was sent to us (above) earlier today. The labeling is of the same nature as the 13 inch MacBook Pro label leak from this morning – unconfirmed – but it does list some interesting specs.

Notably, the label seems to affirm much of what we reported in May: a much higher-resolution display, USB 3.0, and a thinner, lighter design. Specifically, the thinness of the 15 inch notebook is touted as 0.74 inches (compared to the current 0.95 inches) and a weight of 4.7 pounds (compared to the current model’s 5.6 pounds). This is almost as thin as a MacBook Air (.68″ thick) and not a whole lot heavier...

Lots and lots of redundant info here, folks.

Personally I'm going to wait until Monday and see what Apple actually says. I've seen this "we have now model numbers" and "Apple stock is low" rumors before when no new hardware was released. I'm very confident we'll see new hardware, but I'm not laying any money down on bets. When Apple says it, I'll know it's true.

My 12 core lives to see another day before being antiquated

I still don't see the point of absolutely having to edit on a tower anymore, unless you are doing 3D motion graphics or something even more sophisticated. The current generation or even next gen Macbook Pro is a great device for editors. I'll be interested to see how the next gen performs with the retina display, 1GB VRAM and 4x the resolution.

FCPX update is on its way, according to Engadget Liveblog.
