yea, I agree. So seems we can cross the 18th off. Which means we are down to like Oct. 20th or 27th
Got a tip for us?
Let us know

Same. Wait for this and then start expecting invites. I'm banking on either the 20th or the 27th, so realistically, the latest date for invites would be the 20th itself (or I guess the 22nd if sent at the five day mark).
I'm not just hoping for Macs this month; I'm expecting them.
I'm quite sure theoretically it's either ~2^32 or ~2^64 posts in all threads atm.
which means it can handle atleast 4,294,967,296 posts. So we have awhile
We are all the friends you'll need
Would put the base model 15 inch at about two grand. The moment they are selling a notebook for two grand with Intel Graphics is the moment you start shopping elsewhere.
Or, November, unless Apple is willing to loose the laptop share of holiday shopping to MS and others. Can Apple afford this? It already lost the back to school sales.
i still would not be shocked if there is no invites/event and they just release through a press release along with video showing off the new design.
Yep thats what it seems like, so will invites go out on the 13th? or the 20th? or on the 18th?
If the exchange rate doesn't improve that's exactly what's going to happen if the new 15" base model stays at the same price point in the US.
$1999 @ $1.22 to the £1 = £1635. Add on our 20% VAT and you are up to £1962.
I thought invites usually go out around 10:00 or shortly thereafter. it won't be like 2:00 in the afternoon or anything so after about 10:30 feel free to scream into a pillow.
At this point, we don't even know if there'll be an event, or just an orchestrated release to select journalists.
I don't I remember people mentioning it, but not sure why. just process of elimination I guess. some people believe they want the event before the earnings call. which would make the 20th make sense.
oh and some chinese guy / serban #6 said that a chinese forum said it was the 20th

Most likely this minus 1 actually.
Why minus one? sure the first post will start at 0. but it gets displayed as post 1. so post # 4,294,967,295 would get displayed as post 4,294,967,296.

I mean I bet there will be an event still. Kuo said it would be the biggest reveal of the year. and also they have the MacBook pro, the MacBook air, the iMac, and potentially mac mini. and the OLED bar deserves a demo. plus they can bring mac devs like adobe on stage to show the bar being used in their applications. of and Firaxis Games games of course.
Oh absolutely, I dont doubt for a minute that its very possible. I just wonder at what point to they start eating some of the difference, at what point do they start eating into those huge margins?
Granted there has been some effect of currency fluctuation but we've reached a point in the UK where the mid tier iPhone (4.7 inch) is £700, the mid range iPad (9.7 pro 128 gb) is £639 and we are looking at nearly 2k for base model 15 inch laptop. No surprises that they are seeing declining hardware sales.
Just received my Invite!!!!

To my mates wedding.
Let's kidnap Siri and ask Apple to pay redemption unveiling new macbook pros.
I'll see you there man
[doublepost=1476205616][/doublepost]Everyone watch for software updates for apple apps and third party, watch for in the update notes: 'Adds support for Touch Bar' or something along those lines
well they just released another sierra beta :/ so I'm assuming software is not ready for the new MacBook Pro then along with them being released
