Amid all the excitement of the notebook updates and OS X Mountain Lion and
iOS 6 news yesterday, Apple quietly updated the Mac Pro, but surprisingly
continued to use older Westmere processors instead of Intel's latest Sandy
Bridge E offerings. The company also decided not to add Thunderbolt or USB
3.0 to what is supposed to be its top-of-the-line professional workstation,
leaving customers who had been waiting nearly two years for an update
bewildered.
One of the initial tip-offs that Apple had indeed quietly updated the Mac
Pro yesterday was the addition of a small "New" tag to the Mac Pro listing
on the main page of the Apple online store, a tag that was also added to the
MacBook Air and MacBook Pro listings due to their updates.

Apple appears to have had a change of heart today, however, perhaps deciding
that the extremely minor update to the Mac Pro may not be worth promoting
to a significant degree and removing the "New" label from the high-profile
listings of its Mac products in the store.

Apple is reportedly still investing in its desktop lines, with the company
reportedly planning significant enhancements to the iMac and Mac Pro
sometime next year.
