Merom Laptops Delayed Until 2007?

[generik]

I doubt they will wait until MWSF to release it... so many Core 2 Duo computers are out, its the holiday season, apple are loosing out

Tired of being disappointed

Besides iLife for free is always nice

I've been using Macs for a decent amount of time - I love them. And the more I use OS X the more I like it.

but I'm strictly in the one-mouse-button-is-not-enough school of thought. IMO OS X is much easier to use with 2 buttons (or more) - and I find my Macbook trackpad a pain - even in OS X. In windows it's a big pain.

There is a handy program called Sidetrack. To right click, just tap the corner of the trackpad (you choose which corner, I have mine set to the top right) I've been using it since Panther.

On the Macbook, it understands a two-finger tap as a different click. You can configure this to be either a right-click or a command-click or a ctrl-click or whatever.

I believe the MBP motherboards are on Rev B now and the MB motherboards are on Rev F now. I have not heard a service technician post to confirm this, but that is what I heard from a direct source.

As for swappable HD, that would necessitate a case design change at which time your magnetic latch would be likely.

However assuming no case change, a motherboard update is essentially guaranteed, a soldered Merom C2D is the whole point of the discussion, a graphics upgrade is on the top of everyone's list, and perhaps we will see the airport slot and internal antennas (note plural) support 802.11n cards in the future from Intel and Apple and also suppport simultaneous a/b/g/n (2 at a time). Typically a/g or b/n.

I posted a long time ago and I reiterate, where's my "Air Power - tm" wireless power capability? Huh, Apple? Get off the dime! The microwaves might not kill the cat and the baby!
