We all hope that the Mac Pro will be updated with a new dual socket mother board hosting the new Intel processor. My feeling tells me that it will be announced at MWSF 09 but will only be available later in Feb. or March/april...

I would love to see a Mac Pro using 8 cores with hyper-threading on each core for the same price or less as the current line. Running 16 simultaneous threads would speed up video encoding a lot. On the other hand, if the price goes up or the performance goes down, I'll be quickly searching for a leftover 2008 Mac Pro. I need the machine yesterday, so I'm anxiously counting the days until Macworld. Count me as another person waiting to see what is introduced at Macworld. I do a lot of video editing and encoding.

If I bought now, I know I'd be kicking myself the beginning of next year. Yes, I came across funds to update my 4 year old G5 but I’m going to wait, as well.

So very true. Not everyone can shell out the premium bucks for a tower that can grow and expand with them over the years. Very true LovelyQ… So very true.

Apple should at the same time be working towards lowering the price. A big hurdle for many people to get over with the Mac Pro is the price-tag.

I think we're going to see a rumor about every possible device being released at Macworld. So, saying "I'll wait until Macworld" is kind of like.... useless.
