New Mac Pros up to 3.2Ghz, all 8Core.

Apple hat neue Apple Desktop Macs rausgebracht, sicherlich mit Penryn Prozessor, ab 2.8 bis 3.2 (oder 3 für den mittleren), alle 3 sind 8Core, bis 32 GB RAM (das ist neu), hoffentlich mit genug RAM beim Kauf, Apple unterfüttert die ja meist. Ansonsten wie bisher. Apples new Desktops now range from 2.8 to 3.2 Ghz and allow 32GB of RAM now, better Grafics (even with 1.5 VideoRAM), all 8 Core architecture (all models).

Euphonix Controller

New at NAMM (starting after the Macexpo at 17.Jan.08) are the Ethernet-Connectable Euphonix Controllers. there are not many infos out there, yet.

I assume it’s more a pad like a wacom.. flickr shot by jamie2 Alternative Controller(s) List. If you like to see some more controller ideas..
