FAKE!

Not that it matters... Just look at what's happening with upcoming Intel chipsets. The Stoakley/Seaburg chipset is due to ship to OEMs like, uh, today, if it hasn't already. Apple will go 8-core as soon as they can incorporate the new chipset and some of the other upcoming hardware into the new Mac Pro systems. NAB would be a fine time to introduce the new hardware and there's a good bet that Apple could ship by the end of April.

Anyway, I hope they do release at NAB. That gives a few months to work out any kinks and hopefully even have a small spec bump before I need to buy one in August/September. :)

I'm pretty sure the new Mac Pro will be uncovered no later than NAB.

Dear God, please let Apple stick at least one PCI-X slot in the new macs.
