I'd wait. The MacPro's are way late for a refresh and now there are very good rumors that new MacPros are right around the corner. I just bought another 12 core for our facility but couldn't wait as we needed it, otherwise I'd be waiting a few months.

It's the last day of the year I can spend $$ to deplete the company bank =
account. I'd like to upgrade the old 8-core MacPro 2.1 to something more =
contemporary with a modern graphics card (not that my current mac still =
isn't great -- it is). Question is should I go for a current MacPro, or =
keep the cash (and pay taxes) and wait to see what the near future =
brings regarding Apple's pro line.
Advice? Opinions? Predictions?
Thanks,
