No new MacBook Pro

I was hoping for a MBP update as well. I was so sure of it I sold my MB to my girlfriend earlier today. Lucky me we live together so I can probably stall her for a couple of weeks. :cool:
 
i wish apple would pay more attention to their most central product line, the MBP, and not ignore it as the make retartarded toys such as the macbook air and the iphone. all they are is toys. MBP is the heart of apple, i cant believe they treat it so poorly. the next update better be major, otherwise there will be alot of dissapointed people.
 
I've already complained via the MacBook Pro feedback page, I think everyone else should too.
Might not make much difference, but I needed someone to shout at.
Wallace86 says nothing but sense.
 
So, apple has taken the unusual step of making a consumer product have newer & better tech than their top-of-the-line pro laptop.

Are they going to give the mac mini a blu-ray drive now and not update the mac pro?
 
i got a MBP Santa Rosa 2.6 on black friday. had a blast over xmas with Logic Pro, and been working on it for a month

Glad i didnt wait for this bull!!!

bitter are we? they sold 4 million of those 'toys' smart me thinks and not retarded.

i don't know if mbp is the heart of apple. i think innovation, which the MBA is, and great products is the heart of apple. don't get me wrong, i'm bummed they didn't announce at least processor updates as I want to buy one, but i think you're speaking with more emotion than anything else.

They sold a lot of beanie babies as well, but that does not change what they are.

Agreed, but...

They are making Apple tons of money. Good for us all, I think.

They don't treat it "poorly."

It is a fantastic, world class machine.

MBP just won a BEST BUY award from PCWORLD among PC Laptops.

Zzzzzzz

This is way too frustrating.

Now all i'm wondering is if Apple will launch the Penryn MBP after mine arrives when I freaking order in a few weeks.

TIME TO BUY A DELL VOSTRO.



lol?
 
Whooooo! im glad there was no upgrade.

Now whatever the next update will be a necessity! :D
Would be great if apple went all the way to upgrading to Montevina centrinos and come out with ddr3, blue-ray and WIIMAX, since those chips are coming out in march....but then again thats me dreaming :rolleyes:
 
hate to say it but

I told ya so.

I've been saying all along this update wouldn't be announced at MacWorld.

99% sure it will be a simple press release update within the next month.

Some people can't afford to wait that long but cannot risk the life span of the current model.

Cheers, I'll send off a message in a moment. What did you say?

I launched into a tirade of discontent about Apple's general lackadaisical attention to its pro lineup and their money-grabbing attempts and so on.

I second that.


In the immortal words of Eric Cartman... Macworld 2008..... WEAK !



Doesn't everyone just love how Apple has been so successful at alienating the base that built them...


When SJ came back, things turned around for the better... Now, I wish he would leave !


It may be time to explore the Hackintosh a little more.
