Hello. Out of curiosity does anyone know when there's likely to be a hardware update to the current macbook pro's (15") not the 17". Purpose is so that I can work out when to buy one... Thanks! 😉

6 months. WWDC (A major Apple conference). Wont be a big change, possibly a very slight speed boost and price increase. Great time to buy now.

ok - reason being I'm currently working and will be able to afford one around july. Then, will it be worth waiting or buying one? and do you think snow leopard will be out around then?

It's likely you won't see much difference in Snow Leopard vs Leopard. Most of the changes will be "under the hood" vs new user interface features. I'd buy now!

The biggest reason to wait for a new Mac is features, not speed or specs. Bumping those rarely gets you much performance boost. Since these are a brand new form factor I would highly doubt anything new will be added to them other than a slight cosmetic refinement (like when they hid the iSight light. If you need the machine now, get it.

Why don't you come back and ask again when you have the money? 6 months is an eternity in computer land and things will be different than they are today.
