The camera update isn't fair

 

[Schizoid]

the thunderbolt insignia is a FAKE! FAKE I TELL YOU!

...oh wait...

 

[dault2]

wow only 7 hour battery life that sucks

 

[joskewarez]

it is an i5

still the same
that's called marketing, to make people like you coming wild

 

[Fiko]

is it me, or has the quoted battery life gone down from ten hours to seven?

Really 'GREAT' move... I am keeping my Mid 2009 MBP 13.

 

[Vanarak19]

notice the battery times. I bet its the more accurate test. Expect to see 7-8 hrs on the 13".

Im almost tempted to buy a 13", but I wanted the increase in resolution, wtf.

 

[MattMJB0188]

Third!! Great update! Not a great time for me though.

2,3GHZ core i3 thats nothing faster than the previous C2D 2,4Ghz.
It's just a new name for almost the same processor

Not at all what I was expecting.

I might have considered $999 for the low end 13".

Prices are ... thank you for the fish ...

Bye, Apple.

Can you whiners please S T F U??? Seriously!!! You got your update. It's actually a very good update. SO STOP THE BITCHING and ENJOY it!!!!!

This is all too awesome!

15" + 6750 = here I come baby!!!

 

[Sl33pyD]

wow I was really hoping to see some better gpu and some bigger screen resolution on the 13.3" model. Also a SSD would have been great as well :/ Really disappointed in these models, gonna keep my mid 2010 model!

 

[Wiggum]

Optional i7 in the 13"... wow

Not quad.

 

[TheNakedMan]

You can get an i7 dual core in the 13 inch.

Nice.

Might go with the 15inch.

 

[Maury053]

I wonder how much that previous models are going to go for, new and refurbished.

 

[davie18]

Up t 7 hours battery life? Wtf? So it's worse?

 

[Mr Maui]

1440 x 900? Not gonna even bother upgrading my 2005 PowerBook G4. LOL. Here come all of the complainers again.

stop using drugs, the core i CPU's will smoke anything before them

 

[CompilerGuy]

The screen resolution is definitely a bummer. I thought for sure that they would start bumping resolution on all new machines to match the MacBook Airs. Maybe there will be a custom upgrade option?

 

[atomic50]

It's all here

[richard.mac]

nice! love the specs. but 5400rpm stock drive (should be 7200) and no higher res screen options is giving me the poops though. US store still down for me

 

[jeff33702]

LOL at prices. This crap can only continue for so long. Hackintosh, here I come!

 

[adamberti]

Hey guys, it's also worth noting that they updated the Mac OS Lion section with new info and listed features. Check it out.

It's official... Mac OS X Server is gone....???

"Lion Server is now part of Mac OS X Lion"

[Samuriajackon]

No Quad core 13" ...meh...

cost is too much for a 13.3in with intergrated Graphics...

 

[AcesHigh87]

I was hoping for more out of this, especially if those prices are right. I was willing to get another 13", I don't really mind the screen size, but all I'd be getting out of it is a slightly better processor and 2 more gigs of RAM. While the extra RAM would be nice it's not worth the price. To get anything decent out of this update I'd need to get the 15" and $1800 is a little pricey for that.

 

[JSpence]

Optional i7 in the 13"!!!! Whoooo, should update that front spec

New Lion preview page also up.
