Apple
MacPro Updated
12 June 2012
Whilst it was not mentioned in the WWDC 2012 keynote it seems the MacPro has also been upgraded, a browse of the AppleStore shows a pretty modest upgrade. Whilst the addition of a 12-Core machine is great, there is no USB3 or Thunderbolt. Not surprising it was not highlighted in the Keynote.

It is a similar story on the browser front with IE declining with Chrome and Safari increasing.
