A little glimmer of hope for you all......
As I, like many of you, have got fed up waiting, I have been scouring the interwebs today trying to find the best deal for a Macbook Pro. I had an online chat with a large reseller in the UK and they advised me that all the signs, according to them, point to a new MB Pro this month and that I had better wait.
Yay *dances around*
