Macworld San Francisco Keynote Coverage, iWork '09 Coming

[joepunk]

I'm afraid to see the price of this 8 Gig 17incher

 

[abthegreat]

no mac mini as yet

 

[pimentoLoaf]

MR's main page no longer displays. Earthlink brings up a page saying the site no longer exists or has moved.

Too many people trying to read over their lunch hours.

 

[wonderbread57]

So is the new macbook quad core? They said it uses the new c2d cpus

 

[billchase2]

dang it, there went the audio feed.

 

[airlights]

If I needed the power and screen size of a 17-inch Macbook Pro, I would so be over this beauty. It's seriously amazing.

 

[BlackMax]

10:17AM "We've designed a battery that will last 8 hours on a charge, and can be charged 1000 times..." "The key to building a longer battery is making it bigger... the challenge is where to find the space to put it... in a removable battery there's a lot of wasted space."

Now it just has to live up to the marketing...

 

[gr81mgbgt]

LOoks like no new imac or mac mini.

 

[msheldrick]

Non Removable Battery?!? NOOOOOOOOOOOOO.....

 

[stuart.cam]

The new MBP battery can only be charged a 1000 times?
My MB has been charged 1012 full cycles!! (Since christmas 2006)

I'm afraid to see the price of this 8 Gig 17incher

my thoughts exactly...

2500 or something proly

 

[Barabas]

dang it, there went the audio feed.

It was great though. Anybody else have a different one?

 

[kas23]

8 Hour Battery !?!?

Yeah, what's everyone's guess about the true battery life? I'm going with 4, maybe max of 5 hours. Still excellent.

 

[thunderclap]

UP to 8 hours battery life. UP being the operative word. How long will it REALLY last?

 

[Powerdrift]

dang it, there went the audio feed.

Any other audio feeds?

 

[neiltc13]

wow, 8 hours on one charge!!!!!!! and can be charged 1000 times

My supposed 5 hour MacBook gets about 3. I guess this means the new MBP will give you 5 tops?

 

[scottydude]

dang it, there went the audio feed.

Ugh i was really enjoying it... I wonder why it went down. What's the next best option?

 

[DYER]

dambn goodbye audio tahanks god for arstechnica

 

[Luftwaffles]

Oh, I certainly wouldn't be as upset, but I would not be laughing either.

Agreed. I wouldn't be quite as upset since they wouldn't be joking about Bill Gates dying (joking about anybody dying is just pathetic and shows how little human life is valued in some people's minds), but I wouldn't be laughing my ass off cheering them on.

 

[dilbert4life]

It was great though. Anybody else have a different one?

I never had one to begin with - it didn't work for me at all

Woo!

Too bad about MacRumorsLive. Silly 4Chan.

 

[JG271]

dang it, there went the audio feed.

Yep, another one gone down 😡

 

[Joe The Dragon]

only a 9600m? in a $2500+ laptop?

no 9700 / 9800?

can you add your own ram / hd or is it not to be opened by a user?

 

[queshy]

Wow, really too bad what happened to MR live.

 

[abthegreat]

didnt he say three things and the macbook 17 is the third thing right??
