This has got to be one of the most stupid thread-starter I have ever seen, and yet we have had some very nice and constructive discussions regarding the technology specifications throughout the rest of the thread, which I guess was never part of the OP's original intention based on their juvenile actions thereafter. I have a funny suspicion that they might have some monetary incentive relating to the posted video.
Anyway, most of what needs to be said have already been said in this thread to answer/counter the thread starter. I just want to point out that as a physicist who codes on a daily basis with Apple's products, I have already ordered the new 13" with TB. Indeed I have used MBPs for many complex experimental and theoretical work, but I guess that's not "pro" enough by the definition of some people. Similarly, most of the scientists at CERN are probably pro-wannabes because they're using MBPs despite not working on visual or audio productions.
Seriously though, why are so many people hell-bent on the "pro" being referred to professional? It's more or less Apple's style of marketing to differentiate between its products in terms of power and functions. We buy and use the computer that we need, and our needs vary from one person to the next. Some might find the current specs adequate, whilst others might not. If you do not believe that the device can fulfill your requirements, then don't buy it. It's not like Apple is saying that this MBP can meet ALL your requirements. They've made a computer, tell you the specs and prices. The decision is yours alone.
