Will we finally see New Mac Pro's 24th of April?

[24Frames]

The way Apple thinks, an Xmac will be a top of the line Imac with 4 cores or mini or if they really had there way an ipad pro. Seriously, they don't seem at all like they want to open up a new line of desktops for any reason whatsover, quite the opposite.

Why so much gloom?
Dell has announced, but supplies no shipping date.
HP has announced, but ships only in the US.
Until March there was nothing to update, the AMD 67xx / 68xx GPUs offered no discernible performance gain, http://www.anandtech.com/show/3987/amds-radeon-6870-6850-renewing-competition-in-the-midrange-market same with Intel's offerings.

What do you think Apple developers use? Apple will keep updating the Mac Pro because it has a high margin, costs relatively little to update particularly if they keep the existing case, and because they need them internally and have a good market externally. Apple developers to use Hackintoshes! I don't think so.

Also the last thing Apple needs right now is less products. 60% of their revenue comes from a single product (the iPhone), they need more products like the much rumoured TV. Look what happened to Nokia (debt downgraded to junk status this week, once the world's largest mobile phone maker).

The Mac lineup just needs the updated components and it will keep growing due to more people adopting the Apple ecosystem. Adobe are making it easier for Mac users to switch to Windows with CS6, as for the first time you can install on either or both. There is just no incentive for them to upset a lot of already edgy professional users.

Honestly, I don't know why if some people are big on the other vendors, they keep coming here instead of buying an HP.

Only one vendor is shipping, and they're not even shipping in volume. Apple has said nothing either way, and yet some people are proclaiming the end of the world.

Once stock of the old Xeons run out, Apple can't keep making the current Mac Pro. The idea that they will continue making the Mac Pro forever and never announce anything is totally bizarre.

Then stop checking this site like it's a full time job.

Visiting the site more doesn't make the Mac Pro get refreshed or canceled any faster.

I couldn't wait any longer so I purchased a pair of x5365 Xenons from ebay for my 1.1.

Therefore I am certain there will be an update VERY soon.

I think there is about a 50/50 chance on either this being the last MP or next year. Apple does things their way, not necessarily the logical way.

And by the way, we didn't start the "Apple is reconsidering the MP" rumor. We just reacted to it in combination with the long wait, and the utter lack of any other information, regardless of who is to blame. (Intel)
