I can see Apple making the MBP with the new colors that they use for the macbook. They use the same colors in the iPhone, why not in the pros? I can also see the keyboard changing to the new butterfly mechanism. This might allow a thinner MBP. I think the new macbook is a start of changes for the rest of the macbook series.
 
What do you think... will it happen?

I wouldn't be surprised and fully expect it.

Nope, MBP, are aimed more towards Professionals. :cool:

So aren't iPhones and the new rMBs, that hasn't stopped apple. Besides the word professional in the name of the computer is only there for marketing. Its not more professional then the MBA or MB.

It was briefly restricted for sale to certain countries because the computer export industry hadn't reviewed what constittuted a possibly dangerous level of computing power in 1999. It had a MTOP's score of 2775 and the limit was 2000 quickly raised to 28000 in july 1999.

Current supercomputers are many thousands of times more powerful these days and wierdly, often built using multiple game consoles.

Look, it was just a smartass remark. Akin to your, "One that fits in your pocket of course!!!" comment. :cool:
