Hi guys, today I visited my local Fry's.
All macbook pro are sold out, and they are selling 17 MacBook pro for only 1799 as a clearancece price.
And the manager told me that they will have new models in 2 weeks. Ivy bridge CPU.
At least we don't put in our sigs that we are buying the new one...
My local Fry's even have NO MacBook on display.
That means new model is coming, and the manger just confirmed.
This happens every time.
Macrumors et al. post rumors from Digitimes about new models coming.
People ask Apple Store employees or other store employees.
Those employees read Macrumors and other sites so they say that there might be new models coming soon.
People return to Macrumors to post about their new-found confirmation of new models.
What were the specs on the 17" for 1799? There aren't even refurbs that cheap normally. I would snap that up if it is a 2011 model...but sadly no Fry's anywhere close.
Have a look at frys.com
A store Manager told you this? I'll let you into a little secret of my own. No Names etc. But the Director of sales for Europe is a personal friend of mine, you may choose to believe or not, but it's a fact.
He won't tell me when the new models are to be released either, so a Manager in a retail outlet?...err no.
One would presume the Apple guy wouldn't be able to answer that question. Apple's pretty tight on security about new products.He won't tell you or he doesn't know? Because that's two different things.
