Inside the new Mac Pro, however, is hardware
that enhances modularity and flexibility alike,
making it the perfect device to make full
use of macOS Catalina and the collaborative
capabilities of iPadOS. Featuring a new Intel
Exon processor, the new Mac will have up
to 28 cores, with up to 300W of power and a
formidable cooling system. The system memory
can be raised to as much as 1.5 TB, and the
desktop will feature more external drives than
the majority of PCs.
Usually, Apple saves hardware announcements
for later in the year. But with so much focus on
the capabilities of the various new operating
systems, it does make sense to announce new
devices that make the most of this astounding
software range. Given the capabilities of
the first iPadOS, you can expect the next
generation of iPad devices to be designed to
function seamlessly with all of these exciting
new features. We’ll probably learn much more
during Apple’s fall keynotes, which are usually in
September and October – and we can’t wait!
