Will you buy on the 15th?

[brokenlighter]

On the 15th even if there is no MBP update will you still buy?

I defiantly will. I've been waiting too long already, If there isn't anything new on the 15th. Screw it.

 

[teleromeo]

I'm waiting for a mac pro update. Updated displays would be fine too.

And no, my next notebook's probably going to be a Thinkpad. In either case, I'm going to try really hard not to buy a new computer this year. :^)

 

[aethelbert]

What if there's an update but it's not available immiedately?

 

[zioxide]

I'm gonna laugh when nothing comes out on the 15th, you buy a MBP, and something comes out on the 22nd or the 29th (because that's probably what's going to happen).

Why would you laugh?

And It's not like by buying before an update I'll be missing out on anything amazing.

oh really? you know what apple is releasing with the new systems? how are you so fortunate?

share these unamazing features of the new notebooks please

What is the most amazing thing that is going to happen? a 200 MHZ processor upgrade?

Maby I should just wait until MW09 before I buy then.

Because not having a computer isn't as bad as buying one that will be slightly obsolete in who knows when.

The Macbook/Pros are updated every six months. No matter when you buy, you will never have the newest model for more than six months. If you're afraid of ever having something other than the latest thing, you should never buy a computer again.

You'd be surprised at how many people make such posts in complete seriousness. You might have been "joking", but a lot of people are terrified of having anything other than whatever happens to be king of the hill at the moment.

Besides that, it's pretty lame to make a silly post and claim "SARCASM!" in effort to keep from looking silly afterward.

welcome to the internet, if you haven't already found out its hard to convey sarcasm where tone of voice can not be heard...

Nope, there simply is no need. I've just bought my MBP last Summer and will not replace it at least until after my AppleCare has expired. That's in 3 years time.

 

[brokenlighter]

My topic was more directed to the people that have been waiting until MW to buy their MB/MBP's, Not people that would buy them just to have the newest thing.

I am currently computerless and have been waiting a like 7 weeks already for MW and if nothing happens at MW I am just going to buy anyway unless I see some reason not too.

Which is why the best time to buy a Mac is when they're updated!

Enjoy being on top for 6 months.

which is also why there will never be a MAJOR update (well cept the transition to intel)

simply because in 6 months time nothing drastic is going to happen

 

[nslyax]

I plan to.

Either Apple will release something new that I like, and will get that, or I will get a current MacBook.

The major updates will be the platform changes first then the processor.

 

[squeeks]

to answer the original question, i will buy if i can sell my current notebook for a decent amount, regardless of what they change, i want a BTO 250gb drive and a 2.6ghz cpu

p.s. so if anyone wants mine lemme know and ill direct you to the ebay page when i put it up i'd like $2500 for the sys in my sig

 

[Eidorian]

My MacBook might go up for sale to a friend of mine if Apple releases something worth replacing it.

i was referring to like a 1gig increase in cpu speed or 8gb ram standard

Haha, oh wow.

The best you're going to do with that in recent history is Pentium 4 to Core 2 Duo.

 

[spaceballl]

yes.
