[X4U] July 27 Hardware Announcements!

[Zane H. Healy]

I'm disappointed by the lack of details on the Mac Pro.  In fact the 
website for it appears to have a mixture of the old and the new model 
info up.  The store portion of the website doesn't have any 
information on it, still having the old info.

I'm not planning on getting the display, but I am planning on a Mac 
Pro to replace my Rev.0 dual 2Ghz G5 PowerMac (nearly 7 years old). 
I'm looking for specifics on the differences between the new models 
and the old ones.  Honestly I don't see a big change.

I will want to play with a trackpad in the store before I decide on 
that, but as I currently use an Apple Extended II ADB keyboard, and 
an IBM USB mouse, the odds are against it.  I know what works for me, 
and I'm my hands are comfortable with them.  The current keyboards 
look even worse than what came with my G5, though not as bad as the 
iMac keyboard and hocky puck that came with my G4/450.
