I've been doubting between XPS 15 and MBP 15 for a few months... In the case of the XPS wich one would you chose? I dont like the low battery life in the touch retina displays version... But I want retina displayi'm off on holiday for a week, if no news after i'm buying an xps.
, I find it so stupid to just give this option if they have so bad battery life.And last one, do you think there's a new XPS update coming before christmas?
There's also the Precision 5510 which you can spec out as you like, including a bigger battery (clipped to the bottom though).

Holy moly!
How did they reach 920 pages already?!
Doesn't matter, our thread is still bigger
In the schedule of FCPX Creative Summit is another interesting point..
4:30pm "Free time Until 6pm: Visit the Apple Store!"
Does that mean, they want them to buy those shiny new black alooomenium MacBook Pro right after the update from the Apple Product Team? Seems reasonable to me.
I mean, that's a good way to show the professionals the new hardware with even better ( ) graphics.

lol...I wonder is there a www.XPSrumours.com ?
To me it seems like Apple is using Gruber to get the info out to the fanatics who follow him. This way it won't cannibalize the sales to random buyers who just walk into a store and need a MBP but it allays the concerns of the die hard buyers who post thousands of messages on message boards about unannounced laptops.
At least there we know it will happen on november 8th...
Agreed, we are downplaying what a powerhouse Apple is, and how significant of an redesign the MBP will be. I mean the first real new design since 2012. Of course AMD will do everything possible to give Apple access to the new stuff - they get exposure on a scale they'd struggle to achieve on their own. Apple get new dGPUs. Everybody wins except the cynics on this thread who dare not believe any good news

Apple updated their website, 28th Oct for the new Nike Apple Watch...new Macs on the 27th almost confirmed!
How could the shipping of an apple watch be related to the MBPs being confirmed?
i bet we are getting macbook pros on the same day as the apple watch nike release. this makes the most sense now.. new macbook pros... apple watch nike and airpods.
Silly question,it's obvious that they will mention the release of new hardware we don't care about (watch & airpods) at the end of the event on the 27th after the presentation of new shiny Macs.
Guys. This is just more of a sign that new Macs aren't coming out 27th/28th. If they can update a website with shiny new graphics for a ****ing watch and some bands, I'm sure the same amount of marketing would be created for a redesign of the MacBook Pro, heck, even a normal invite style banner or something.
I literally have no idea when these new macs are coming out now. Maybe because we're not seeing coffee lake till Q2 2018, Apple could technically release a MacBook Pro in Q2 2017, so the refresh could still be a year away from then allowing Apple to sell MacBooks for a year.
According to the leaked roadmap for Intel, regarding the 13" MPB, kaby lake 28w processors will be out halfway of Q1 2017, so I see them releasing a redesigned mbp 13 and 15 at Q2 2017.
Sorry folks, that's just my opinion, but in my head it seems logical.

The latest page numbers as a function of time. I marked the 27th as red.
How many pages before the event? 1300? 1400? 1500?

Announcement of any event will easily add 200-300 pages of analysis and speculation of the event. If next week passes with nothing, then it'll be 200-300 pages of fury.
