Gonna be weird not coming to this site everyday after the MBP comes out
Yeah, still trying to figure what I'm actually gonna use it for then.
Until I see an event announcement I'm staying stoic.
I think that is a reasonable conclusion.
So the decision will need to be done soon !
Still hesitating between the top13 model
Basic 15 with iGPU
Or maybe even top 15 with dGPU ...
Will be pre ordering as soon as possible in any case.

I think we should start thinking about a tshirt or some sort of gadgets about this thread to show to the world when the wait will be finally over.
Imagine walking into Apple Store to buy new MBPr wearing a shirt with written "I WAITED FOR SKYLAKE FOR 1240 PAGES" and on the back "...AND I'M STILL HERE!"

Leaving MacRumors after 1.5 years of constant checking.
Speaking of this, does anyone still believe they are keeping the FN button on keyboards? I've yet to hear a convincing reason for it. I think we should start getting used to ESC being at the bottom of our keyboards.Invite hint predictions?
"Mac. More 'functional' than ever."
Oh Haha.
After we get our new 2016 MBPs.... we won't have to check macrumors any more. And that means we won't have any use for our new MBPs
guys... an macrumors article comes out today saying nothing we didn't already know with no official announcement from Apple and you guys all go crazy like the second coming of Jesus.
I think we have all lost it.

You know, I'm very much looking forward to the new mbp but I'm not fond of dongles, especially not dongles with small connectors. I have to use a micro hdmi to hdmi dongle on my current ultrabook and because the connector is so tiny and the cable heavy, it loosened up the port and is not giving a good contact anymore.
I kinda dislike the dongle life and having to think which dongle not to forget. I dislike it so much I'm thinking of getting the 2015 mbp, but every time I think of buying, the price reminds me I should not. Prices haven't once been lowered in my country since release a year and a half ago and there aren't any refurbs available, ever. Also I can't buy second hand as I prefer US qwerty and people in my country use azerty as a standard and neighboring countries use international qwerty or qwertz. Sucks.

For that many tabs, maybe you should try using FF with Tab Groups extension or something to manage what's open at any given time. Not sure why you'd even want to have 200 active tabs open at the same time...but it sounds like a memory issue and not so much a processor problem.
I will take 2 shots if anyone says, "it's the best laptop / macbook we've ever made" during the event.
2 shots if Ives says "alu-mini-um"
2 shots if Schiller says "Skylake"
