But no more else
They didn't say this in the WWDC but the Mac Pro line has been updated with better and faster processors up to 12 cores
Another silent update that comes from Apple without previous announcement.
It has been found that the Mac Pro line-up has been updated as well with new Xeon processors up to 12 cores.
Unfortunately, this is it along with the amount of RAM and hard disk capacity were the only silent updates as it seems the Mac Pro computers will still ship without the normally standard Thunderbolt ports, USB 3.0 or Wi-Fi N.
According to Engadget:
You can check all the configurations available in the link below.They didn't warrant a mention during the big keynote, but those patiently waiting for an update to the desktop-bound Mac Pro weren't left behind by Apple today.
The company has quietly updated the line on its website, bringing a rather modest spec bump to the familiar tower.
That includes a single 3.2GHz quad-core Xeon processor on the base $2,499 model, which comes paired with 6GB of RAM and a 1TB hard drive, and a pair of 2.4GHz six-core processors on the higher-end model, which gets 12GB of RAM as standard and the same 1TB hard drive for $3,799.
The $2,999 Mac Pro Server will give you a 3.2GHz quad-core Xeon with 8GB of RAM and a pair of 1TB hard drives.
Notably lacking is the addition of Apple's otherwise standard Thunderbolt ports, or 802.11n WiFi connectivity.
