I Love my 13" MBP, so why don't you ?

It seems everyone is really upset about the lack of a real model upgrade on the 13" MBP for 2010. To be honest, I was one of those people that bought a 13" back in January, regardless of any future update.

My mac is the best mac on the planet - I am sure you feel the same way about yours - or at least did at one time. It's not because it has the fastest cpu, or the most memory --- it's because it's mine.

I can actually see a method to Apple's madness on the 13" footprint. It seems to me they have no less than 3 (arguably 4) products with the same general size: MBP 13, MB Air, iPad, and MacBook.... If I were running a technology hardware company, that would be a LOT of "devices" for my small footprint market.

I know what the next comments are going to be, and I agree... but consider, Apple may be planning a lot further ahead than we are thinking with respect to the 13" footprint.

Why does this make me think about Full Metal Jacket?

well my asus 1005ha netbook is mine and so is my big ass pc tower and the hp in the closet with a burned out gpu - that doesnt exactly make them all super duper

but i hope apple will make something out of the 13" for real at the wwdc

I agree, bought my 13" about 6 weeks ago, base model and upgraded to 4gb ram. Sort of bummed that 4gb is standard and I had to upgrade myself, but I don't think I would see much of a performance boost with a 2.4 and upgraded graphics for what I do. If the 13" MBP got an i5 chip I would probably be looking to trade up.

The 13" MBP is the perfect laptop -- I have a 13 and a 15, but the 13 is my fav. I think the disappointment is that Apple stuck with the C2D. But if Apple did this for battery life then it was a good decision. It's one of the best features of the 13. Hopefully we'll see a 13 i5 by the end of the year though.
