He was wearing a fine parka which only had a few holes in it, so I'd think his word is as good as gold.

Regarding the outsanding taste of this guy (a bottle of Stoli, a fine parka with ONLY a few holes), let alone the most definitely tremedeous smell of his fragrance, I would instinctively define his word as beyond any kind of valuable currency.
So looking forward to being tomorrow !!

How many people need to say Apple is not releasing ANYTHING tomorrw! They are not going to slight the iPad launch! Besides, what is the big deal about Tuesdays? They released mcp on other days and the ipad is coming out on a saturday.

I think you might have missed the humor here. :\

Anyway, Tuesday is the USUAL unceremonious launch date for Apple products outside of special events.
 
At least tomorrow is another good chance: the last update in the recent history taking as long as the one we're waiting for took 288 days (2005/1), offering the new Pro's. Guess what: tomorrow makes it 288.

Good mathematic skills - i thought about making the calculation the other day but i gave up. Anyways Keep the faith !! Whatever we can find as a reliable source/sign/leak/******** is worth being taken since our beloved apple isn't giving us anything - and that's one of the reasons we love it.
Haha what I think is Jobs just wants to nail the longest-MBP-release-ever record. Let alone he doesn't give a damn about MB or MBP anymore...

Just wondering, what if I keep my macbook pro which is supposed to come in two days. Say I keep it for 2 years and then decide to sell it on ebay or some other similar store. What do you think will be the most I can get for it. I paid roughly $2500, but normally it would cost $2700.(student discount)

It has 3.06 ghz processor core 2 duo
15" glossy
4gigs of ram
500 gigs @ 7200 rpm
NVIDIA GeForce 9400M + 9600M GT with 512MB
sd card slot

and all the other standard stuff.

So yea what do guys think I will get for this macbook in roughly 2 years time.

I sell mine about every 18/24 months and I get about 1/2 of what I paid... been doing this for years !!!

Thanks, but I still doubt the importance of the iPad, just a hunch. If I would buy one, It would slip and fall and break, at least that's what it looks like to me. No I'll keep being a happy pro.

yea, im new to macs, but finding out that they retain so much value, I just might go into a cycle of selling and buying every 2 or so years. Saves a lot of money, while keeps you on the forefront of apple's technology.

I doubt my dell 17" laptop would sell even for $400, even though it cost roughly $2000. Its 4 years old almost, but you can get better pcs for less today, so no one will buy it. mac is different, you can only get them from apple, and they are expensive so there is more market for the used ones. :D
 
its not gonna come out tomorrow! intels stock on the i5/i7 is meagre! now i really think the new pros will soonest come out mid of april.

Maybe Intel's stock is meagre because Apple has bought so many :cool:.

I like this. I have a jizzy feeling every monday evening, it's fun:p

not unless apple already stocked up on i5/i7. Plus, considering they already have i5/i7 on imacs, they probably have the chips for the mbps.
 
I wanted to buy the 15" MBP last friday at a certified reseller The salesman told me that it is sold out, and for over a week he didn't get any new ones. He told me that it probably has to do with the new updates. So I sure want to wait for the new MBP. This weekend I was searching the internet looking for rumours about a release date that's why i end up here. But in the Netherlands were i live is a techsite (tweakers.net) with also a similar thread. That is were found this image

Is this true? if it is I sure want to wait for it. I hope it is not a hoax.

now I can't wait even more. However, it looks a little bit too short in terms of descriptions and a little nonprofessional. Otherwise can't find anything wrong with it.

You have got to be kidding me, its such a shoddy mock up in so many areas, and the text is the biggest give away. Apple dnot tend to word stuff like "the engineers at Apple" they tend to try and make it seem more personal and so it would more likely be worded "our engineers" or there abouts. anyway, not a chance of any of this stuff.

so terrible, in so many ways.

hahah, the stereoscopic isight is probably the most hilarious part of the mock up. The parallax effect from the cams being that close together is almost negligible.

Looks AWESOME!

Educational Pricing Discount - 2 Kidneys

A bargain at any price! jk
 
I had a friend tell me that one of the managers at apple store put hands on a BLACK ALUMINUM MACBOOK PRO.... now i dont know how real this is, and it's very very unusual for mac to give a new macbook pro and the color being black on that line.

But you never know. Hope this gives someone hope it will be out soon!!!

I feel like information like that would be leaked well before the actual release date.
 
just got my mbp guys, not opening it, going to return it on sat and hopefully they will come out with new ones.

Writing it with BOLD AND IN ALL CAPS makes it all seem all the more ominous.
