Screw it. Total redesign or not tomorrow, I'm still buying a 15". MBPs seem to hold their value for a year at least right?
 
ahh, I was all set on buying my new MacBook Pro 13" when it comes out tommorow but this new rumor has me stressed out. I would really love a new design on the MBP and it dosent look like this years refresh will have one.
Oh well, I guess Ill just buy it anyway and see what happens
 
If there's a total revamp next year I'm getting one this round. Learnt my lesson on being an early adopter and missing out on firewire when I bought my unibody back in 08.
 
Revamp in 2017!?

Believe me but MacBook Pro gets revamped in 2017! It will look absolutely different to want you know today. And from then it will not longer be called "MacBook Pro"!
 
I hope this announcement is indeed the Ipad 2. I could see apple releasing the Ipad 2 in the March/April time frame. If they did release another one I'm guessing it would be an "Ipad mini" with a seven inch screen around christmas for the holidays, and maybe an update of the Ipad 2 that would include the retina display if it doesn't already have it. That update would be a downloaded update that could be put onto the current Ipad 2s

I can't believe you hid this information from us inside this thread. This is the most valued, profound rumor ever. Wow, folks. Just wow.
 
Also being an iPad buyer in August, I'm really happy that I bought it then even though there were rumors about the second one coming out in January. Looks like the third one will be coming out soon as well! Better to buy than wait. If anything, you can always sell what you have and upgrade.

Mbp redesign in 2012 is false. World comes to an end. Duuuuuh!

This should be common knowledge by now.

Methinks if this rumor were true, then it would have been a huge oversight for :apple: to have underestimated the competition with this purported "iPad 1.5" -- considering what came of modern smart-phones after the original iPhone. It would be a grave mistake for them to release an second iPad with just a modest spec bump and expect to sustain or exceed demand. Hardly enough "wow-factor" to lure potential Xoom buyers and the like. I don't know, it just seems very un-:apple: to release a device only to release yet another much more capable device a few months later :rolleyes: :confused: I say fiddlesticks to this rumor.

Apple is not releasing an iPad 1.5 and that is not what Gruber guessed. He said after the iPad there will be an iPad HD and they will both be on the market together for the cOming year.
 
These rumors have gotten beyond ridiculous. OF COURSE THIS IS FALSE. The logic would make no sense whatsoever.

MacRumors has been out of control the last few weeks. Stop reporting this complete nonsense. It's not credible enough to even be called a "rumor". Jeez...

On to the next dumb rumor........

Thanks, baryon, et al. Your voices of reason are doing me an enormous amount of good, in ways I can't express.

Dumb question (which I asked elsewhere on this site). The iPad will get a media event; since the MBP refresh (whatever it is), likely won't, how is it announced tomorrow? The new models just appear on the website? Any specific time?
 
Next fall? I'm sticking within the next week... too many cool things coming NOW to worry about October rumors. Silly.

Can't wait until tomorrow! New Macbooks! :)
 
if newer ipad comes out next month then no retina display. if it indeed does get postponed until later this year then its getting retina display. its that simple:rolleyes:

my guess is with all the speculation going around about whether the ipad will come out next month or later this year has to do with apple deciding whether it wants to release retina display

with all these newer tablets coming out apple might be finding themselves behind the curve if they just release a minor spec bump with a camera if indeed they plan to launch the newer ipad next month

Next iPad "codename: applesauce" will come with a malleable screen.
Morph your iPad from 9.7 to 7 inch and maybe some more. But not before 2032.

Maybe this is what causes the world to explode.

Scene:
WWDC - 2012

Steve enters the auditorium. Hi folks we have a new gorgeous product to unveil to you today.... The NEW Macbook Pro.

He lifts a cloth from on top of a nearby table.

BOOM!

the whole world explodes from the awesomeness.

Or maybe not. :)
 
First: OMG totally redesigned MBP within days!!1!!

Then: Some details leak, no new design

A few minutes later: OMG next year will bring totally new design!!!11! Because you know, there will be new MBs next year … and eventually we have to be right …

:rolleyes:
 
Rumor mill has been going at full blast the past few days. The new trend is to start rumors about Apple products that are two revisions away. iPad 3, Redisgned MBP in 2012, soon we will get rumors about iPhone 6.
 
Good news for me. My 17" i7 that I bought last year has plenty of life left in it. :D
