overall it's just fine
just hard adapting when you know what programs to use in osx but not in windows and stuff like that
Unless your productivity is being negatively impacted by the C2D, I sincerely doubt you are "dying" on your '09.
If you're really being negatively affected, just get the Sandy Bridge models now. From early impressions, it looks like most of the material improvements are from graphics, which is irrelevant from a professional stand-point because if it mattered you would be using a discrete option anyway. The only other real drawback is the lack of USB 3.
Yep, he's right!
Got me 2 of those yesterday - a quad-core 2.1Ghz 13" 😱 and a 2.8Ghz 😱 Quad-Core 15" with a Radeon 7970m with 2 Gb Ram😱😱
Here's my review http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0 😱
Hmmm. Using my 2008 aluminum Macbook right now. I'm not feeling faint or experiencing any other near-death effects. Maybe you should see a doctor?

Yeah, he's right...
Some pretty decent food down there if you don't mind some pretty basic forms of protein...
Also the chicks ain't that bad either 😉
Patience my padawan
I love the "Where is my new shiny Apple thing..." threads in these forums.
Meanwhile on the other side of town, folk are still waiting for a Mac Pro that wasn't designed when Tony Curtis was still alive.....

What I don't understand is why people sell their Macbooks, Iphones or ipads months before the new one comes out and resort to an old computer until the new one comes out. Kinda pointless.
How about buy a new one on credit card, then sell the old one then use that cash to pay off some of the credit card. Simple as that.
What a hassle.
With that being said, I hope the new one comes out soon. I need a real upgrade, not just a new yearly toy that I will use for 9 months.

I'm on a 2009 MacBook Pro. It's not that bad... You make it sound like it's 10 years old, not 2 and 1/4 😉

It's because the resale value of the old product will drop significantly when the new one comes out, even if it seems like 'everyone knows a new one is being announced next week', there will be a lot of people who don't follow the tech news and will pay top dollar for 2nd hand product that is going to be replaced within the week.

So people would rather give up using their awesome machine for a month or two to be able to sell it for an extra hundred bucks.. They don't drop that significantly..
