BestBuy Signs of Macbook Pro Update

appleisgod · Feb 7, 2010, 10:23 PM

I work at BestBuy and we can longer order anymore macbook pros because they have been "deleted". This only happens when a newer model is coming out, is it finally time for I 3, 5's and 7's?

Claerion · Feb 7, 2010, 10:26 PM

If this is true that's quite interesting. I wonder if this is happening to most of the stores...

Sneakz · Feb 7, 2010, 10:28 PM

You mean "we can no longer order". Nonetheless, good news.

cmaier · Feb 7, 2010, 10:28 PM

Probably just a glitch caused by running the optimization software on your own computers.

jus10p · Feb 7, 2010, 10:28 PM

Best Buy's website no longer lists list the 17" at all.

Yeah, I just checked nearby stores in my area and the 17" models are no longer in stock.

Yeah, don't forget to fight, I mean, talk to the manager to get that crap removed and get your $60 back.

Let's hope it's true, We'll find out in probably 48 hours :SS

appleisgod · Feb 7, 2010, 10:59 PM

Yea, iMacs and all the other computers can still be ordered, it's just the pros that are down. And if the "geek squad" doesn't mess something up then they just aren't doing their job. Anything to make you pay more.

Jakron · Feb 7, 2010, 10:59 PM

Yea just RSS the sku's. It says the out of stock date is June 10th, but I'm pretty sure that's just a random date as it's exactly one year from the in stock date.

Has anyone been able to confirm this?
