Hello to everyone!

I am planning on purchasing a new Mac Pro this summer and I am very excited! I have saved up $9,000! My question is "should I go with Two 2.26GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon or should I wait for the "rumored six-core http://www.macrumors.com/2010/03/16/intel-debuts-xeon-5600-series-processors-appropriate-for-mac-pro/ Xeon processors that many expect to appear at the end of June?"

This will be my first Mac so I am nervous. I don't want to purchase this Mac Pro if there will be releases coming this summer. Any suggestion or comments would be appreciated.
