MacBook Pro Specs, LightPeak Known As ThunderBolt?

[MacReloaded]

thanks DrJohnny for those pictures.. Interesting, the screen LCD lines make it seem less likely of Photoshop, but I'm a PS noob that just does very minor editing. Anyway, glad to see some 15" love

I'm not saying that it is a fake but you can photoshop the image then use a camera and take a photo of the screen.

so remember how i said 10 wed know everything..its 10:15 :/

Wait until 10AM Cupertino time. All your questions will be answered (hopefully).

EDIT: Frankie says relax.

Thin is in.

Thank you Dr Johnny for sharing the new pics.

Calling fake now - at least on the port photo.

Or it could be the cellophane wrapper.

"Snapped a shot off of Apple's site when no one else was looking and only I got a screenshot" = certain fake.

Yep.

No prob, buddy.

We can still dream.

 

[ldellx3]

so what would you do if apple didnt refresh tomorrow..

 

[MacReloaded]

Whoa:

"Snapped a shot off of Apple's site when no one else was looking and only I got a screenshot" = certain fake.

Also, look at how the Thunderbolt icon is lower than the others and one of the two USB icons are missing.

Move on w/ my life!

cry my eyeballs out and probably go mental.

 

[zigzagable]

Are you familiar with the visual principle of perspective?

yup, that's why i made that comment.

 

[ldellx3]

Move on w/ my life!

ahaha that would just lead to annoyance and me being on here more wondering about what is going on

Yeesh

I set up one of those new HP Envy laptops for a client at work the other day and it had one of the worst keyboards/touchpads I've ever used in over a decade of using laptop computers. Yeesh.

This could be interesting, it's the thunderbolt port I'm interested in.

Apple is more secretive than the CIA.

No additional news on the SSD dedicated OS.

Lightpeak but no SSD/redesign and for me a step back in graphics?

If this is no joke I will keep my toshiba business laptop...

But I still hope this is some well made fake!

What are you talking about when you say it's a step back in graphics??? The old 13.3" only has a dual core with 256 integrated vs. The new i5 with 384mb I mean I fail too see the "downgrade" you speak of here. And if this really does replace the white MacBook at $999 then you really have no argument at all sir

Dude you are right. Windows laptops are cheaper. And you get more horsepower for your money. Thank you for telling us all what we already know.

If it doesn't run bash or tcsh out of the box, it's not even a computer.

thats a great point...i'm a bad typist but I do best on any apple keyboard.

 

[Buck987]

so what would you do if apple didnt refresh tomorrow..

you move on and make do with what you have till the refresh comes...not much else to do.

Am I the only one more intrigued by what a "FaceTime HD Camera" means? It could simply be a rebrand of the iSight, but I think that had already been done (and as "FaceTime Camera," sans "HD"). Does this mean the Macs will finally get a camera with a respectable resolution?

Really? because I tried my friends and actually commented on how it felt exactly like my macbooks just quieter.

ThunderBolt

Is it me or is the early adoption of ThunderBolt insane? With all that I have read it appears that this is a half step to the ultimate goal of LightPeak adoption. ThunderBolt is copper whereas LightPeak will be fiber once adopted. I see no backwards compatibility here unless I have missed something.
