Now that everyone has realistically decided on either getting the Retina MacBook Pro or the Non-Retina MacBook Pro, I think it's time we decide on the official name for the previous model. I remember back when we all switched from the SR MacBook Pro to the Unibody, it was simply Uni, Unibody, or Non Uni. Now we have:

uMBP (un-retina?)
cMBP (Classic)
nrMBP (non-retina)

So which one is it going to be? Signatures everywhere are depending on you!

(I'm voting cMBP. Classic is just, well, classy.)

EDIT: MBP is an option, but I can't edit the poll. Just let the thread die.

I use MBP for the non retina version and MBPR for the retina version.
 
None of the above.

MBP - MacBook Pro
MBPR - MacBook Pro Retina

The simplest option is usually the best.

i'd say call it the Macbook Pro since thats what it is. don't understand why it would be called anything else. :confused:
 
Never knew it was already created.

Google/search police, tear this thread to shreds.
To be completely honest, this EXACT thread probably wasn't created.

It is just frankly similar to another.

To throw my 2 cents in, the answer "lMBP" should be put in.
