Apple’s Mac Pro and Mac mini family of desktop computers are still patiently awaiting their Sandy Bridge and Thunderbolt upgrades… but CNET’s Brian Tong has received word that a refresh for these machines isn’t too far away.
Is messages posted to Twitter, Tong revealed that his sources have spilled a release date for the new Mac Pros and Mac minis as the last week in July or the first week in August:
EXCLUSIVE: My sources tell me ALL NEW Next-Gen Mac Pros and Mac Minis will launch either end of July first week of August.”
Tong also warned customers not to purchase these machines now and to wait it out for the refresh:
August more likely, Sandy Bridge and Thunderbolt on both. NO details for specs or configurations given. DO NOT BUY! WAIT for the new Macs!
Tong’s sources are the same as those who accurately reported the launch date of the most recent family of iMacs — which hit the Apple Store during the first week of May.
