I'm curious to know what all of your expectations are with respect to any performance increase Arrandale based Macbook Pros would bring for applications such as Maya and Adobe's Creative Suite.
From the looks of things, the 13 inch MBPs won't see much more than just a processor upgrade. If it turns out that working with a complex mesh in Maya's viewport or retouching a 600 dpi document in Photoshop isn't profoundly better compared to previous generations, I might just wait instead for the inevitable deluge of 15-17 inch MPB's to make their way to the used market.
So, what impact, if any, are you expecting to see to your workflow with an Arrandale MBP?
