Does anyone have any idea as to why Apple only released one of these models instead up just updating the whole MacBook Pro lineup to this new form factor and retina display? Does it have anything to do with price discrimination in order to get the most money out of it or did they actually have a reason for only releasing it in one 15" model?
The ODD is dying a slow death and SSD's are still too expensive for large capacities, something a pro user needs.
I'm not sure it's related to the number of pixels or if statistically Apple determined it wasn't to their advantage to create a 17" model.
Are new commercials for Apple products really worth a page 1 post? Isn't that just an advertisement, too?
yet they can fit a fairly complex high res screen in an ipad, and a much larger battery, than hte previous year, and keep it at the same price.
Sure the ipad may have had a larger margin to play with, but between the larger SSD and the retna display, i suspect apple have a fair bit of margin buffer added into this product.
HEY... this is the same music that Ford's been using in their commercials for a while.

Admittedly, this is a much, much better ad. The Ford ones are basically a bunch of talking heads saying "hey, we're pretty sure these cars aren't terrible!"
Anyone know where to get that trees-in-water image they're using as a background?

Music reminds one of a Ford commercial of but a few fortnights ago, but an excellent commercial indeed.
You mean not until Apple releases there.
Seriously though, if they did a Retina Cinema Display in like a 40 inch with HDMI input I'd be all over it. Put it right next to my ODD list, slimmed up 30 inch retina iMac.
Well, 99% of the articles will be about Apple; note the "macrumors" domain name. Anyone coming to the forum is looking for Apple info, so it's not like a soda ad placement or something. It's legitimate news in that it shows what Apple's focus is, relevant for both investors and consumers alike. I for one do not watch TV, so I don't see popular-culture ads. Furthermore, if these forums don't constantly post fresh articles, people will stop visiting.
