#apple mac pro 2017

Apple has quietly given their Mac Pro a performance boost by updating its specs while retaining its SRP. Apple just named its next Mac operating system macOS Golden Gate. Golden Gate refers to the strait near San Francisco, keeping Apple's tradition of naming macOS after California landmarks. The new release brings all iOS 27 features to the Mac, including the refined Liquid Glass design, the new Siri AI with Spotlight integration, Visual Intelligence via keyboard shortcut, full Safari AI features, and the complete Apple Intelligence update. Apple may be planning to launch a cheaper MacBook model, according to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. Unlike current MacBooks powered by Apple’s M-series chips, this upcoming model is expected to use the A18 Pro which is the same chip found in the iPhone 16 Pro. Kuo notes that aside from the processor, the rest of the specs may be largely similar to the MacBook Air. He adds that Apple is targeting between five to seven million units in production for 2026, hinting at a more aggressive price point than usual.
