That seems ideal. Makes sense because nobody wants to buy a computer and a week later have to upgrade to the new OS.
Got a tip for us?

Your user name reminded me of game 7 lol
Anyways I hope that the Macbook Pro gets something special. This will be my first mac ever so I want there to be something besides just the improved graphics and improved battery life.
they do fit, 7mm was tried by a friend of mine, she said that it fits, but they don't have a cable, nor anyone is going to produce one
6 pages worth of posts for a Sunday! But October hasn't even started...
I predict that this thread will hit 10K, especially when the rumors pop-up, and there is actually something to talk about.

Except that the general populous' adoption rate of OS updates is quite high. Haven't you seen the charts that macrumors posts every time there's an update?

We had over 100 posts today. At this rate we will hit 10k in a week
All bets are off if Apple release the Haswell MBPs this Tuesday. In that case, we might hit 10,000 posts on Tuesday or Wednesday.
People would have said similar things about the iMac release before last Tuesday.
Now I want to see Apple release them on Tuesday but not just for Haswells anymore.

You want to see Mr MM give birth??? I have no such desire. I just want a Haswell rMBP.
What?! No! I just want to see Mr MM lose a bet. Cmon man.
Well that was good for a couple of laughs

You can always buy online and pick up in store. You won't have to miss class.

I always lose bets! thus I'm already thinking of the name, I think Sunshine Ray Tibarastikaya sounds lovely doesn't it? imagine the boy answering attendance, I will go to the first week in class for each year just to see the teacher
Part of me wants a silent refresh, so I can get it asap. But the other side of me thinks if the iMac had a silent update and the rMBP gets some event time then we could see some more significant changes such as the rumoured 'slimmer' 13" form factor or some other features/refinements that make it even more of a buy?
If the 13" rMBP gets the rumored reduced thickness, I may just sell my 2011 MBA and get the rMBP. However, I guess it's not impossible that we will be seeing a redesigned MBA next spring (june?), and if that particular model would feature a retina display, or at least a much improved display and new case design, I would seriously regret having purchased an rMBP.
Decisions, decisions..
Decisions, decisions..
We're talking 1mm difference. The diameter of a pin-head... Tat's the current difference between the 15" and 13". It is an unnoticeable difference...
At this point I hope there is not a silent release this Tuesday. The wait cannot be much longer. I know, famous last words
But the longer it goes into October the more chance the Haswell rMBP's have Mavericks from day one and TB2.
IMO there won't be a silent release tomorrow. The iMac is different. It did not need Haswell. It was a typical spec/processor yearly bump. The rMBP's need the better graphics. And they need the better battery life of Haswell + Mavericks.
