Apple readies 27-inch LED Cinema Display, dodeca-core Mac Pro for June debut
Thursday, March 18, 2010 - 11:25 PM EDT

Steal of the Day - Updated Daily!"Apple is putting the finishing touches on a pair of new products targeted at its professional customers, namely a larger version of its LED Cinema Display and a major update to its Mac Pro workstations," Kasper Jade reports for AppleInsider.

"Targeted for release by June is the Cupertino-based company's second LED-backlit Cinema Display, measuring 27-inch diagonal and largely resembling a slightly magnified version of its existing 24-inch model (review), which was introduced to much fanfare back in October of 2008," Jade reports. "Two people familiar with the upcoming display say its been lingering in Apple's labs for quite sometime, where it's frequently referenced by the unique identifier/codename "K59." The Mac maker is believed to have been waiting patiently for the cost of the larger LCD panels, which sport a resolution of 2560 by 1440 pixels, to shed some of their premium before introducing the model to market. "

Jade reports, "Meanwhile, Apple is also wrapping up development of its brawniest update to the Mac Pro ever... [the] Mac maker's plans call for a dodeca-core model, sporting a pair of Intel's latest Westmere-based hexacore chips for a total of 12 cores."
