Hello apple, new macpro please!!

[nrwray]

So how long are we going to have to wait for a new (refresh) on the MacPro?? At the office I've been using a second gen MacPro (dual 3 Ghz dual-core Zeons, 8 GB ram) for the past 5 years. And have been waiting for a new machine for the past 3. I'm a visual effects artist and I need a pro level computer for my work. I mean I realize Apple has been more focused on becoming a larger consumer products company. But the niche pro market is what kept them afloat during the dark days. I think it's pretty crappy of them to just ignore us now that they've gotten so successful. I've always stuck with Apple because I love the integration of hardware and software and it's user friendliness. But come on Apple, step up. I know you won't sell millions of new MacPros like you would a new iMac. But think of a kickass MacPro like a Dodge Viper. Not very many people can afford one. But a lot of people came into the showroom to look at it. Then stuck around and bought a Charger, 300, Ram or whatever.

You'll have to wait until Intel releases the Sandy Bridge Xeon CPUs.
As this has been posted enough, maybe this can help: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandy_Bridge#Server_platform
