Took me a while to come to my senses and realise i cant afford the macbook of choice right now and probably wont b able to until the new year. The question i have is, if intel are using a tick tock system that apple are following quite surreptitiously yet closely. Is there any way to predict when the new intel processors would be out, because if its within three months i may be able to hold out till they are updated before making a splash. Gah im becoming an ever waiter...
