Some of us look fondly on our DOS days
I personally think that the Next Revision of the MBP will be super sweet. I think it will be the same thickness with a redesigned interior due to the different battery as we seen in previous rumors.
Should allow for bigger heat sinks inside for more heat dissipation.
I want to see the Core 2 Duo 2.8GHz 6MB L2 Cache, 1066FSB
Up to 8GB DDR2 800
ATi Mobility 3800 Series 512MB GDDR4
Its possible. Other Notbooks (Sony for example) do it, and include a blu-ray drive all for about 2300$... Im just saying
could do it too if they wanted....

Yeah... I tried it with the numpad and unless Apple wants to make a 20" laptop there's no way to fix an extended keyboard on the current 17" MBP's dimensions.
And your second point it why we'll probably never see one. It's off center and therefore wouldn't mesh with Apple's aesthetic tendencies.
OMG:
Mods: It's a joke no need to punish me if you find this cruel. <3
Jesus! Overclocked AND fractional RAM and CPU multipliers! NICE!!!!!!!

Is it really possible to fit a 3800 in a 1" case?
If it's not, increase the thickness by 0.1" so it FREAKING IS..
Seeing as how atrociously buggy Leopard has been since introduction, they probably won't notice much difference. Don't choke gloating on your schadenfreude and corn flakes.
Sucker.Yeah, iPods in September, new MacBooks in November and new MacBook Pro's in... January!!! Let the waiting continue!!!
New Formfactor...MB+MBP
Yeah, but you can only curve unused space. I guess it will look clever.
One word about WINdoof (WINstupid) OS: I can't understand the policy of a company with such financial and human resources. The inability to come up with something as good or better as OSX, LINUX, etc., using hardware resources efficiently is incomprehensible to me...
Well, it tells us something about leadership and management, does it.

I've been waiting since April for a improved MBP, but today I decided to buy a Eee PC 901.. Why? Cause all the rumours are talking about new designed MBPs.. And that's not good for a person like me; a person who wants to switch so badly and needs a laptop for college but needs a 'problem-free' investment. And like almost every new product, even if it's made by Apple, new MBPs probably will have problems, . And now I can start my collegeyear with a little tiny laptop and wait for MBPs that are 100% working fine..
But if Apple decides to only update the processor, videocard or whatever, I'll have a Eee pc for sale.

.No.
It still wouldnt' be doable in a 1.1" case.
Is it possible to get it through to you that Apple doesn't revolve around graphics cards, much less your petty wants?
If it's not, make room in your head so it FREAKING IS.
Actually, I bought the Santa Rosa MBP last year on the 2nd day it came out and have had no problems. But, if this IS a really cosmetic update, then it is possible for some problems. Im just saying last year, everything was fine...at least with mine.
Apple must love guys like you. Makes things on their side a little less demanding.
It's been possible in 1.3" laptops for some time, I tend to give Apple the benefit of the doubt in being able to innovate in it's industrial and internal design, one of the ways it justifies it's price premium, so I don't see why with a suitable case, better cooling and thermal paste, 1.1 or 1.2" wouldn't be possible.
You defend every decision Apple makes like a briandead little Red Guard hot for Mao, keep your vile manners out of a computer rumors discussion forum you pathetic little fanboy.
I don't think their is any solid proof of a new MBP coming out in the next month, all rumours so far could just show up in the new Macbook, Which I think is pretty certain to happen this or next month. I hate top admit this but yeh, I doubt we'll have a MBP this or next month... I'm still waiting though :/.
Apple must love people like me? Someone who gets a new Mac literally every 10 years? Yeah, they must be cheering every time someone like me is born.
I'll take Apple's side when they do right, and won't when they don't.
As a company, I don't like Apple. I do like their products. I also think Steve Jobs is a douche.
What I don't do is whine about them not changing their practices, such as their choice to go with a svelte 1" design. If they do, good for them. It restricts what they're able to do and where they're able to go with their mobile line, but Apple has never advertised the Mac as a gaming platform, especially their laptop line.
They've never in their history included high-end graphics cards, and that was before they were 1" thick. If you want a gaming laptop, buy one. Don't whine about Apple's sudden lack of gaming ability now that you're finally on the Mac bandwagon and have picked up on it. They're not going to start now.
Also, don't give me ****.
1.3" laptop, as has been painstakingly explained to you before, is a world away from 1". It's not just that it's 30% thicker.
1.1" would make a difference, but not make it possible. They already run hot as hell and they're underclocked, you must know this.
Apple also does not want a wind tunnel a-la GeForce 5600FX or MDD G4. And you do not give them the benefit of the doubt; all you ever do on these forums is bash Apple for no good reason. It got old a long time ago.
I don't, actually. I'm not happy with their apparent decision to go to the chiclet keyboard, round the corners of the MBP, or their idea of thinning it again (it's thin enough).
As for being brain dead, I think it's probably apparent that I've got more brains than you've got. For one thing, I know the difference between "it's" and "its." For another, I don't tend to harp on things that oughtn't be whined about, nor do I complain endlessly about the same exact thing that I not only have no control over, but has been shown to be ridiculous numerous times.
I believe this sentence is a bit contradictory. Wouldn't a better way to present oneself as high-minded and- ah, well-mannered- not be to insult the person you're admonishing in such a childish manner?
I'm not a fanboy.... I'm not particularly small, nor am I particularly young; at 21, I'd guess I'm older than you are, whom I would peg at 14 to 16.
I think you just killed the high horse out from under you. I also think you probably stole it in the first place.
Anyway, I just hope it has a 3670, which would be a breath of fresh air.... ATI and slight speed bump.
Was just listening to the live broadcast of TWiT and Kevin Rose was on.
Claims there is going to be an Apple Event on Sept. 9th.
no mention of laptops just ipods, but who knows.
Keep that date in the back of your minds.
Thinking of putting my current MBP up for a 10 day on eBay September 1st, so I can remove it on the 9th if nothing comes out
