Why wouldn't you just comment in that thread?
There are a ton of general threads, mine is specific ... unless there's a thread about quad processors that I missed.
If we go by your theory, then everyone would just post in one long thread about Macbook Pro's and never start new threads.
Thanks for the input.
Yeah, cooling would be an issue there with as thin as the MBP is. I don't imagine the chip itself is a whole lot bigger, but the extra heat could be a problem, as they already get very hot
good ?, maybe he didnt know there was a thread attached to it.Why wouldn't you just comment in that thread?

It could just be a BTO option.

What makes you think Arn has any idea?
Between the bottom 13", and the top BTO on the 17", there will be a lot more than 3 CPUs. I'd be very surprised if at least one quad didn't turn up. I wouldn't be super surprised if all the 15" and 17" came with quad CPUs. Although only time will tell how ambitious Apple is going to be.

Yes I do, and I don't like desktops.
I will just be patient -- I was just so sure that this year we'd see a quad in the MBP's. Oh well ... hopefully it's a BTO option -- that would be a nice surprise!!!
I want a $1199 MBP 13" with quad core processor, discrete Nvidia graphics card, lighter, thiner and with black liquid metal
But sadly technology still has limits and I agree that a Quad Core processor in a MBP probably would have heat management problems, so if they offer it even as a BTO option and you get it it's highly probable we'll see you around complaining of overheating or burned legs....

I don't come on here for pissing matches, so you can just stop with the insults.
I was just wondering if anyone heard if this was true, or if there's a good reason for any of it. I've owned Mac laptops since 2004, and I am well versed in the company's products. No need for comments like the one in your second paragraph.
