Come on Mr Jobs, give us something new on the Macbook Pro, I've been waiting all week for a new drive or Chip to Penryn ??

Is it work waitng for a week or so to see what comes up ?
 
ive been waiting 4 months.


i was HOPING to buy it next week to aid me in my studies

seems i wont be now, as im guessing the update could be anytime.


apple has crippled my studies with their will they/wont they update strategy leaving me afraid to buy current gen MBP's.




i feel a lawsuit coming on:D



joking steve, but please mate, get on with it...
 
Well, i just got my MBP a couple months ago, but I promised myself if it had a powerful and promising update, I would get the new one.
No such luck.
Well, my wallet thanks Apple at least :p

There is no technology available for a "powerful" update.

The new Penryn chip at 2.8 ghz is maybe 2 to 5% faster than the 2.6ghz. That's it. You would never notice the difference.

The Current MBP has been rated a BEST BUY among PC Laptops by both PCWORLD and Information Technology in December 2007.

Those who waited, waited in vain. Can't say I blame anyone for waiting, but there was no good evidence for an update other than "hope."

I got my 2.6ghz, 17" high res, with 4gig ram and 200gig 7200rpm drive, three weeks ago and Love it. It flys.
 
Wait until june

then you will get penrynn


and mb and mbpro will get multi touch then, with LED across the board
 
Because Apple is waiting for YOU to buy a macbook pro. Then they will upgrade. So go on, get it over with so we can get new machines. :rolleyes:
