New 17 inch macbook pro

To people who are on the fence, etc. GET THIS BABY. The resolution and greater real estate on the screen make a HUGE difference over the 15 inch.

I agree- and after looking at and comparing them side by side, there is a very small difference in size. The thing is just so, so sick!

Speakers are nice too 🙂

I've heard people complaining it was too big. It is the lightest 17" machine on the planet! It is only slightly bigger than the 15". I am eager to get my hands on one--tomorrow or Wednesday I should have mine.

I feel the two best machines are the MacBook and 17" MBP. THe 13" MB is a very nice machine also--better than the old MBP and much smaller.

I wish it was available without the waiting though.

The weight of the 17" MacBook Pro is less than the weight of some of the other manufacturer's 15" notebooks.

Or a lower price 😉

Ordered last Wednesday and got it today. Stock config.

Liking it much better than the 15" unibody MBP I had so far.

My 15' is still within the 10 days. Maybe I can trade up if they get them in stock.
