Reports earlier this year claimed that Apple would break the current 16GB barrier for MacBook Pro memory, allowing the 32GB (or more) that some RAM-craving professionals demand. In addition to the Pro laptop, the company is delivering Kaby Lake to the newest MacBook (non-pro) and iMac computers too. Today, Apple is harmonizing MacBooks and iMacs with Intel's latest CPUs by replacing Skylake with Kaby Lake. "The 13" MacBook Pro is now more attainable with prices starting at $1299. With the new processors, the new MacBook Pros can perform at 3.3GHz with Turbo Boost of up to 3.6GHz. As last year's MacBook got good reviews from experts, it also had its fair share of misgivings.

Baseline models will have an 8-core processor, but can be maxed out at 18-cores.

The iMac Pro will also feature up to 4TB of SSDs, 128GB of ECC RAM, four Thunderbolt 3 ports, and 10GbE ethernet support.

And though the iMac Pro won't ship until December, the fact that Apple announced it so far in advance was a subtle nod to users who have grown impatient with slower product upgrades over the years.

Those pining for a highly competent workhorse can finally put down their pitchforks and eye off the latest iMac Pro.
