Guess I'm no exception on the forum; I've been waiting for a MBP update ever since I don't know when (didn't have the money when they implemented the SR chipset) and am quite disappointed so far.
Basically, what I need is a good laptop that can perform like a desktop. I work with OpenGL for experiments - the Intel GPU is just not an option. I won't be lugging it around too much, except for when I go to a conference or seminar, so I'm not really excited about weight (has anyone noticed the trade-off between weight and size? yes - the laptop is thin, but it still has a 13" screen).
With the possibility of the new intel chips I'm gonna wait still. But hey, they can't hold off an update forever, can they? So it's either wait for an update of buy a refurb for a nice price (although with the prices they're selling those refurbs for, I can get a new one with higher education discount).
All in all: Not a very happy bunny. Not a happy bunny at all. 😡
