Official "Waiting for Santa Rosa" thread.

So today was not that day....

But I remain skeptical about a release at WWDC. Unless this is a full MBP overhaul w/ new enclosure, the MBP will be updated before WWDC.

Yesterday I took your prediction as fact. I really hope for a new enclosure almost more than anything else.
 
I don't think apple is going to talk that much about the iPhone at WWDC (it'll be released late june), because its called the World Wide Developers conference for a reason. Most likely it'll be something about Leopard and how they're giving the developers a complete beta or something like that and that they've (and should) updated the MBP, and hardware update for the MP. Than in August the iMac and MB most likely (in time for school) will have an update. Then Leopard will be realeased in late Oct. No subnotebook, no touchscreen iPod, no touchsceen iMac, thats what 2008 will be, maybe.

Jobs will most likely talk about how busness is increasing, and what direction apple is going bla bla bla.
 
Is there going to be a live stream of his keynote by any chance? Preferably something not in quicktime format 🙂

Huh? Have you looked at the new AJAX text feeds? Their pretty good, the page auto updates every minute with two or three items from a reporter in the room.

Not sure what you're referring to, but it's not what I've seen the last couple major announcements.
 
I really hope they update the GPU along with the CPU in the MBP...

I also really like 3-letter acronyms.

Anyone notice, by the way, how many refurb MacBooks and MBP's are in the Apple store all of a sudden? Methinks that could be a sign of updates to come...?

they do this often this time of night. and refurb stock shouldn't be indicative of impending updates.

Probably referring to the NAB show where almost all of their info came from engadget and was slow as hell to post any kind of update.

They won't update their line-up just by adding a new chipset and an incremental speed increase of 66Mhz.

They will want LED displays and better GPU (VPU) to mention a few things.
 
Just wanted to throw my name into the hat of people waiting for Santa Rosa. Actually, I'm just waiting for a MBP refresh of any kind. The things I'm hoping for are a faster GPU, more RAM support (4 GB should be good enough), flash caching, faster optical drive (get rid of those 6x drives and put 8x drives in the whole lineup), and LED-backlit screens (assuming they increase, and not decrease the colour gamut). Anything above that would be a bonus. 🙂

Ditto that.
 
I have a feeling this thread is going to become very long before Apple actually delivers. Stupid me for thinking that the switch to Intel would provide more frequent upgrade cycles.
