Mac Pro waiting on new Thunderbolt?

You may want to read the Forum Rules - Minor Problems. It concerns NOT correcting grammar / spelling / etc. unless it causes confusion.

Now, guess what: Not using uppercase letters or punctuation does cause confusion.

Flatfoot out.

Mac Pro sales could easily be 250,000 per quarter.
HP and Apple probably have similar volumes of workstation sales so you could estimate Apple's sales (very very approximately) from HPs.
Of course no one knows what Apple's sales figures are for separate Mac lines as these are not made public.

For another way of looking at it the following survey may give a clue.

If you multiply the survey percentages by the average selling price (Mac Pros are a bit more expensive than Mac Minis...) and you get an estimate of revenue per line...

Not to most people - me thinks you got caught "flatfooted"

Yeah, grammar, punctuation, and uppercase letters are clearly overrated...

Forgive me kind Sir, for I have exposed thou eyes to barely comprehensible grammar and abused the English language. I shall attend next possible linguistics class and return when my knowledge and respect for punctuation and uppercases are perfected.

He's not a native English speaker, I believe he's Finnish. How's your Finnish?

I'm swedish -.-' and I can type properly. But dis es teh internetz and most of the time I just don't bother.
Unless i'm super serial.

In 2010 (or was it 2009?) it took Apple about one month to release the new Mac Pro after the CPUs had been out. Why should it be any different now?

in 2010 they announced the mac pro one month in advance.

It's still a good idea to run some final tests with the final product.

in 2009 (or 2008) they actually released the mac pro before intel released the cpu.
