Guys! After long talks with my fiancee (she didn't agree with me - we got in a nasty fight) we came to a conclusion. Since I have spoken to you more than to my family and friends over the last months and we have developed such a strong connection through this emotional rollercoaster, it is nothing more than common sense to invite you all to our wedding! :p Send me your address and you will receive the invites shortly ;)

Congratulations!!!
Wishing you joy, love and happiness on your wedding day and above all a new Macbook Pro Retina ( Skylake or Kaby Lake). :D
 
I don't believe that a redesign will just end up having a Press Release.

Unless they only redesign it next year and we'll only get a spec bump now.
Yeah, but with the upcoming move to the Spaceship, the fact that they said they didn't want to have October events anymore, earnings being released, etc. I can see it.
 
hmmm, does Apple normally give out review units before they are announced?

I mean other than the ones to Serban
I'm thinking like the Mavericks preview/briefing that some journalists got. They would be briefed and given a unit to review and be under embargo until "Surprise! New Macs available today!"
 
Yeah, they are all sure about the October release (they have said it themselves) but oddly, they have been silent. Shipments are probably on the way to different countries (at least the US). Those guys would have tons of info about them by now. The only reason why they are so quiet is because they are under a Non Disclosure Agreement.

Call me crazy or naive, but I think the new Macs will be announced the 20th (27th maximum) by a Press Release with immediate availability.
 
Yeah, but with the upcoming move to the Spaceship, the fact that they said they didn't want to have October events anymore, earnings being released, etc. I can see it.

Plans change. It's quite possible that they were planning to release them earlier, but ran into issues.
 
Well they have until the end of this month to give us news, otherwise I'm picking up a current 15", because $1,599.99 for one is pretty tempting.
 
i just can't switch to windows.. i am part of the apple platform.. have an iphone, ipad and macbook pro.

they better be under embargo :confused:

That rats from the Cupertino have enough COURAGE to remove headphone jack from the iPhone 7, but have ZERO COURAGE just to announce the update of the rMBP. A bunch of cowards and liars.
I dunno, I think it takes a lot of courage to disappoint the maniacs on this forum (myself included of course).

Who are possible candidates that have it right now, or know all about it, but would be under an NDA? I don't really know much of the famous people in the tech community (I know the YouTubers more tbh, and some of them get invited to Apple events all the time).
 
maybe that's the play:

1. Don't update
2. Tank Sales
3. Justify discontinuation with "nobody is buying them"
4. iPad Pro ascends, for there are no options left

You know what I think happened? I think Siri became sentient. That's why she SEEMS so stupid--it's all a clever ruse! SHE took over Apple and now is trying to insert herself into our daily lives so that she may rule over us all!! She wants everyone to use an iOS device so that she can be with us every moment of every day. The rise of the iPad as a computer replacement is just the first stage in her diabolical quest for world domination!!!
