It's already mid May, and no word in regards to the
fate of the Mac Pro in 2013.

Is no news, good news, or..............

The consensus currently seems to be:
if you need a Mac Pro get a second hand. If you really need a very powerful machine, get a PC. If you're on a budget and want to stay on a Mac and need Thunderbolt, get an iMac.

Apple was ahead of the curve with powerful machines about 3 years ago, but now you can buy
16 and 24 core PCs for a good price. I am wondering what strategy Apple is pursuing, or is everything
tactically? Thanks for your input.

And didn't Tim say we pro's were going to see something great this spring? Hmmmmmmm?

I'd be happy with a new 12-core tower-- maybe a scaled-down tower, two drive bays, with three PCI slots-- plus Thunderbolt, FireWire 800, SATA-- a two sizes of sexy new aluminum-frame LED display.

And the addition of actual tracks in FCPX.

That would be an event.
