They definitely had some key processors early, the latest Mac Pro got the Xeon 5500's first, and the old MacBook air in 2008 had an exclusive processor for it at the time.
For this latest deal though, I've seen articles about European resellers already stocking the i7-980x, and there's already a router/security appliance that's using the new Xeon 5600. Maybe they are just taking pre-orders, but it definitely got some buzz going as I have been waiting impatiently for this new MacPro.
