MacBooks being pushed for sale in preparation for imminent redesign?

"They believe there's an "80% chance" that Apple will introduce redesigned MacBooks and possibly MacBook Pros at lower price points. Specifically, the quote prices starting at $999 (down from $1099) for the MacBook and $1,799 (down from $1999) for the MacBook Pro. They also expect "slightly redesigned" iPods and "lower-cost" iPod Touches in time for the holiday buying season."

hey,

just asking myself what i would do if the mba gets an update (new intel grahpic, 45nm cpu) and everything works as it should..no core shutdown, more battery life and less heat. i mean this should be the mba since day 1.

so what would you do...sell your mba and get the new one?

the apple
It would be smart of Apple to update ASAP in order to compete in the fast moving market. Sony is using them so I do not see why Apple won't? The only thing that is strange is that the new Voodoo Envy 133 uses the same processors as the MBA which is kind of kill the very soon to be updated MBA deal, but we shall wait and see.


It's probably not the topic, but I was wondering has anyone read about coreshutdowns happening on the envy 13.3? They share the same specifications so I believe it has to be getting CS.
