Itinerary :

• Stocks are tanking due to evil Republicans. Don't worry - the Democrats have it all under control and are going to bail out more parties, I mean companies.

Now to the products...

• New Minis. They are better, because they have aluminum on the case.
• New Cinenema Displays. They are better because they have rounded aluminum on the casing.
• New Mac Books and Mac Book pros. They are better because they all have aluminum somewhere.
• New iMacs coming in December. They are better because they have aluminum on the casing.

• John Mayer.

• One more thing.... buy these products. Thank you.

"Superficially updated cinenema displays - for users who don't give a crap" ?

Seriously, we don't need any partisan politics on these boards. Some of us come here to escape it.
 
Ditto. Even if it is satire, don't push me back to the world of political insanity.


I hear you...Nov 4 can't come and go soon enough for some of you in the US eh?

But back to the IMPORTANT date, October 14...

I had my beloved powerbook stolen 2 months back (named "Eve", if u must know!, yes it was love for 2 great years)

After what has been a crappy time of 'one night stands' with fill-in pc laptops - I am really excited about a shiny new MPB that meets my needs at last.

(altho u never forget your first love do you?)

:)
 
I have a replacement laptop order for a MacBook Pro that got put in yesterday. Still hasn't shipped... even though it's not a custom order. In the past, my orders have typically gone through quite a bit faster. Any guesses as to whether I would get one of these new MBP's?

I'd be ok with getting a current generation, since it's still a step up from the older ones I've had (this will be the 3rd replacement).

But, it would sure make my week if I got one of the brand new models.

My shipment was picked up by FedEx in Shanghai, China sometime last night.

Now I'm just wondering what model I'm going to get. Like I said, I'll be perfectly happy if I get the current (soon to be older) model, since it's definitely a step up from the MBP AppleCare is replacing.

I guess I'll know soon enough... or at least I keep telling myself that.
 
everyone watch zeitgeist if you really want to know the truth about the economy.

To be on-topic, has anyone else published an invite except engadget??

I just had a situation very similar to this where there were two items I could've potentially received - one that I liked, one that I love. Like you, I was trying my hardest to convince myself that it'd be great if I got the one I love. I got the one I like, and was a bit depressed to say the least. The somewhat cynical moral of the story: expect the worst, and everything will be an upgrade. Try and convince yourself that an Apple branded rock is flying your way from China, and you'll be pleasantly surprised when a computer arrives :D

That blows. At least you had AppleCare to replace your old machine. :)

i don't have the money for my mac book or mac book pro yet but this is what i am hoping they will have

video card in mac book
a 15 inch screen mac book for those of us wanting a little more real estate that do not need to have beefy machines
6 GB of ram in the mac book pro
500 GB hard drive in the mac book pro (to match HP) ;)
and a SSD would be nice

and cheaper like every one
And like every one i want a suprise
 
i didn't know HP did 500gb, wow, that would be sweet - but equally to be able to burn to bluray might ameliorate the storage prob's so many of us have these days...
