Perhaps realising that calling yesterday’s Mac Pro update “new” was like hammering a nail into your wall and calling it a renovation, Apple fessed up today: there’s nothing that new about it.
The Mac Pros got a spec bump. A pretty insulting spec bump, really — slightly faster processors. That’s it. No Thunderbolt, no USB 3.0, nothing from the era since Ke$Ha was on the radio daily. The “new” banner has been removed as of today, with perhaps a mix of embarrassment and honour. [Apple Store]

Isn’t it just new in the same way any other ready built desktop is? Sure you could upgrade it yourself, but if the company is selling a complete computer with a part that it didn’t previously contain it is new.
