For clarification to my earlier post, I wasn't referencing just the Mac Pro, but new models in general. Your point is correct as it applies to the past practices.Could you be more specific about what's different in terms of WWDC announcements? The Retina MacBook Pro was announced at WWDC 2012...
Edit: Unless you're talking specifically about Mac Pro announcements, and obviously Apple did not make any Mac Pro announcements in the last few WWDC because the updates were minimal. My point was that IF Apple was to release a new major update to the Mac Pro it would be at WWDC, not a few months before.
I think we can rule out the operating system: iOS is not a joke, it's an insult, that much is clear.
tomorrow: Apple announces 5th gen iPads.
Apple's new iMacs, first announced in October, experienced significant delays in shipping, presumably due to the thinness of the machine.
Ummm... actually I do use Adobe software. Not AE and Premiere, but plenty of work in InDesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator.I guess you don't use Adobe software because the graphics card in the 2011 iMac renders AE and Premiere a dog for so many things.

Of course. Because it's an Apple product and should be perfect out of the box, right? With zero imperfections! From the very first second! Phyyyy.....
...the thinness that nobody cares about or asked for, and that makes the iMac harder to build and service.
Actually Apple has always been ultra obsessed with thin devices, it's just that in the last year there wasn't much room to go thinner.
Luckily to satisfy their intrinsic need to keep making their goal of thinner, we have super adhesives that allow apple to toss the fasteners and bind it all with glue.
Whatever challenges that presents, such as some broken or damaged components in the attempt to repair faulty units, only makes more money for Apple. They have always been good at selling hardware.
2014 ought to be quite a year. Thinner glue perhaps?![]()
I wish they would announce the new Mac Pros alreadyAfter getting used to a SSD in my Retina MBP, its rough to use a disk. It would be silly to upgrade the SSD now because who knows what they will put in the new ones.

Because people can only really think of only two massive mess ups when it involves apple in recent years, and the other one was all the way back with the iPhone 4.
There were zero imperfections in all the pound notes with which I paid for it, so damn right it should be perfect out of the box.
