This is the best misinformed Keynote speculation ever!!
Good job Steve!
Not really.
Ha Ha Ha.
Did anyone think that Apple would make your MBP obsolete over night? Gimme a break.
Did anyone REALLY think that a Macbook would have dedicated GPU AND come in at $899. Ha ha ha ha, stop, please, stop, oh gosh, I can't stand it, he eh hee ehee hee, stop, haaa whoo whoo hooo hee hee, haa haa.
Steve>? Hahaaha. Have a brain and realize that 1% of the PRO market in graphics and media is offset 100 times by gamers who would by macbooks in drooves if it had a good GPU. Whooo hoo hee aah haa haa, stop, stop, really.
I have seen it all.
Apple will NOT become what most of us want it to be until Steve is gone and Ive's is in control. Then and only then will you see a great machine with great graphics.
And by the looks of some of these rumors, I think, if true, the older Macbook Pro's just went up in price. I remember everyone selling their iPhone only to find out it was worth more, not less, after the new iPhone came out. No firewire? Glossy Only? That cannot be true. If it is, that's pretty bad. So it can't be, Steve can't totally run the company.
I still don't get why the marketing department tells Steve that HEY STEVE, the numbers show that if we release a $10.00 US DOLLAR Graphic card in the macbook, many gamers will buy it, the Pro's will still buy the high end and the lower end, and we'll make a killing (See if Apple released $899 how market would grow by 67%), but wait fan boys, tell us sweetly, that STEVE DOESN'T CARE ABOUT GAMING (larger than music business), of course he does but he's so paranoid that the PRO would not buy the high end, his brain is fogged. If all these rumors are true, there might be some WOW factor, but you heard it hear FIRST, I would be stunned to see HIGH END GPU or any gaming (translation MOTION USE) on a Macbook. NOT GOING TO HAPPEN unless marketing department slapped him silly.
The Macbook could never play games, yet it went (in terms of benchmarking) on the macbook from:
71%
110%
141%
171% (same machine with Leopard) and every site said while you could NOT play games you could run motion, so what does Apple do with its fear of the 1% using it??? It cripples it and releases X300 which then runs at 71% again and no motion.
Yeah, okay, Macbooks will all have great GPU.
LOL. No way, makes too much sense, and Steve doesn't have any.
Rah Rah EFI-X.
Anyway, if the rumors turn out to be true and the CPU is the same but with a better GPU this means, STEVE FINALLY GOT IT and realized that the gaming community far far far far BY FAR out weighs the 1% that uses it for PRO use. The HIGH END USER (me and others) will always buy the low end and ever more so now, especially at aluminum and low end.
