USB 3.0 and Faster FireWire in Next Mac Pro, iMac?
HardMac provides some long awaited rumors about the overdue Mac Pro and iMac updates. According to the site, Apple won't be releasing a new Mac Pro until "end of summer" with the iMac revision to follow a few weeks later.
They also report that Apple will be introducing two new technologies into their desktop machines: USB 3.0 and faster FireWire:
On this occasion, Apple should inaugurate two great innovations, the arrival of USB 3.0 and a faster Firewire interface, 1600 or 3200. Thus, Firewire will not forgotten.
The also report that Lightpeak isn't expected for another year, and, of course, we won't see Blu-Ray in these desktop Macs either.Top Rated Comments

No blu-ray? That stinks but I like the idea of USB 3.0... just not as much as having blu-ray!

Can I get an AMEN for faster FireWire?!?!
I still hold hope that Apple will shock and surprise w/ a LightPeak port on a Mac this year.. But faster FireWire makes me smile.

By being a graphics designer. Justified.
Seriously, not everyone LOVES BluRay. I don't, and don't care to.

As the MacPro has been delayed for so long it will then probably come out together with the MacBook Pro. All with USB 3 then ? Then, I'll hold before getting a new notebook.:apple:
