Here in Chattanooga we do not have an apple store but we do have best buy and Mac authority stores. If I do go for it tomorrow, is there a way to tell from box labels if it's a newest revision model.... Or have they not had any little hardware twinks this year on the mbp 15" i7?
Got a tip for us?

Since upgrading to the i series processors, they have not changed, other than adding a 2.8GHz option.
Not true, I know a lot of resellers that have previous gen stock, and they are almost giving it away because no-one smart will buy it.
I had a guy try to sell me a previous gen macbook, so I got out my current gen MBP to open apple.com show him that he was flogging old stock and to give up.
He almost cried when I told him he needs to learn his product before selling it.
I work at best buy and got a MacBook pro 2.66 ghz core 2 duo 4 gb ram 9600m for 879 cause it was an old model. That's 50% off it was new too not open box and without best buy discount
See, this is good, people can buy previous gen gear if they want it, and get a bargain, but the guy I was talking about tried to tell me it was current gen...
Sorry, didn't mention that...
I would happily buy the current MBP when the new one comes out to save a buttload of cash!
thank you ... I stand corrected ... so therefore, buyer beware
cheers
Mind you, I am in Australia, so maybe we aren't as mac hungry here, and therefore, everywhere else might get a bit quicker stock turnover!
Either way, be sure to check spec and model number (OP).
