I actually really like it. It's like a thick macbook air. Exactly what I wanted :cool:

I'm hoping for this:

MacBook starts at $800, available in rainbow colors, exactly like a thick MacBook Air but with ports and an optical drive....

MacBook Pro starts at $1799 and comes in silver and black. Just like a thick macbook air but with ports and an optical drive.

Possibly blu-ray. Hooray, yay

We are all excited as it has been way to long and we are all about ready to scream at another iphone rumor/thread.

Where are the Mac Pro's?

I know I know, I have been a long time notebook user myself, but I think it is time to REALLY upgrade! I know Apple Inc. has never really had a media event surrounding the Mac Pro's, as they more or less just release them in the background... Any ideas? I know it has been close to 300 days since the last release... Average is like 220 days...

Hmm...
*after mentioning new notebooks*
"oh and also, we've updated..."
 
MB/MPB Size

I don't have the graphics software I would need where I am now. Has anyone scaled a current MB or MBP based on the apple logo on the back, overlaid it on the invitation, and determined the size of the notebook in the invite?
 
Hey guys.

Has anyone else noticed on the invitation - the top two corners are rounded, almost like a trackpad?

Notice that the areas outside of the rounded area are silver, ie, aluminum, with the inside being a dark black, meaning perhaps glass.

Not really, its a viable question. Just because they have the event doesn't mean they will come out the same day....or does it....idk, I would like a more intelligent answer than yours, you know, being an ass.:apple:

In case nobody answered, it's simple...the new machines are gonna be available between the day they are announced and one month later, at the latest...

Yes, and it was about the same size of a regular Macbook

Probably a silent update like last time, if they're not doing anything special to it. I doubt it has a profit margin that can justify spending too much time and effort over to their accounts people, as important as it may be to actually introducing people to the Mac.

I think the mini is at the point where Apple either has to commit to it or kill it. It hasn't even been updated to Santa Rosa, and what would be the point of that now? Either they bring it all the way up to the new chipset the MBs are going to have, or just admit that it's at a dead end and finally EOL it.

Is it possible that they were gunna hold out, but after the leaks they decided they needed to release it soon before the whole mystery is gone?

More like they decided to release it before everyone's bank account becomes totally worthless. :eek:

Maybe Steve will finally bring back the "One More Thing" line hat everyone has missed so. :rolleyes:
 
There is a God - and his name might just be Steve - depending on when they actually get released!
 
64 negatives........ Why??? :confused:

There are over 60 people out there who think Apple releasing new notebooks on the 14th is a BAD thing??

Or maybe some people around here like to abuse the rating system?


:rolleyes:


Bring it on, Apple! It's about time.

(voted Positive) :D
