Hey guys, I've seen a lot of people talking about this randomly but haven't been able to find a thread dedicated to this subject. Since Intel has pushed up the release of their merom mobile processors do you guys think it would be smarter to wait for the merom macbook notebooks? They could, theoretically, be out in August I guess but then again macbook itself didnt come until almost 5 months after the pro model. Also, considering the complaints with Macbooks weight and glossy screen it seems like some of these issues would be addressed not to mention the inclusuon of 64 bit technology on the merom and better battery performance. I dont know...those are just some of my thoughts, and I am certainly open to all of you guys opinions. Just want to get some insight as to what the rest of the mac community is thinking as far as the best time to make the intel jump. As you can see from the hardware I'm using now I am getting to the point of desperation for an upgrade. So to wait or not to wait?
