The display looks really stupid, at least on the photos.

For a split second I didn't notice it was behind a store window. Just about freaked by by all that glare.Has anyone seen the real deal yet? How do they compare with a matte screen?
Maybe I'm crazy but should'nt a laptop be usable outside? This looks about as usable as my Ipad in Direct Light, meaning Not at all.

I'm still not sure what to think about them replacing the 17" MBP workhorse with a non-upgradable high-res 15" Macbook Air. Skinny is neat, but not really the #1 priority of the "pro" set.

Who cares? Do you repair your TV, Refrigerator, Washer and Dryer, etc when they have issues?
If people want superior products and new designs, then certain things will have to be sacrificed. Components that you can just swap and remove and repair yourselves is one of them.

The 17" was the 'portable Mac Pro.' Now you don't have a Portable version, .......
Totally Ordering one for High School this thing is amazing.
If a 17" workhorse was their priority, maybe they should have, you know, actually BOUGHT SOME.
The only reason it was discontinued is that the bloody thing didn't sell. Let's stop pretending it did, 'kay?

Long question short: is there a history of long (3-4 week) shipping estimates changing/being updated to shorter intervals. Or in other words, is Apple known to give the 'worst case' date and then modify as supplies become more certain?
I can take partial blame for that. I have been saving up for a year to get "the new MBP" and wanted the 17". To my chagrin, now that the 17" is gone and the 15" MBP-R is out, that is what I sepnt my money on. So by holding out for a new 17", I ended up getting the 15".

I am typically a 'custom-order a MBP mid-cycle/wait in line for an iPhone/iPad' type of guy, and not accustomed to their shipping methodology.
Even so, cut your parents a break.Unless you parents are paying for your education it's probably wiser to save your money for collage.
So what you're suggesting is that if I buy AppleCare, they won't be able to repair it, they'll have to give me a new one?![]()
"This" referring to what? The image on the article shows no glare on the actual MBP and the glare over the giant fake MBP is clearly from the Apple store's glass window, not from the screen itself. They probably just put a regular HDTV in there and TVs usually don't have glass covering them.
