CPU performance won't change much, but I thought integrated GPU performance was the one area of significant improvement: http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2016...is-gpu-makes-the-skylake-nuc-a-major-upgrade/

And it is. Specially on the GT4e processors...
Still, if I want a laptop with dGPU, this doesnt matter too much for me. I want that better dGPU...
...is there a reason why I shouldnt? obviously i wouldnt say the same exact thing in each of them. unless you think im just wasting my time (which i probably am)
I mean, I think it's wasting your time because realistically this event is already set in stone for October 27th with the laptops themselves launching in November, and there's not much to speed that up now.
Also, I just think you could get your point across in one email instead of wasting Tim's time with a bunch of emails from your other aliases. To each their own though!
Right now it's 100% thinner 'cause it doesn't exist.
I would say that those renderings by the Martin fellow, are pretty close to what we will actually see.

I actually got my hopes up.....that the first time I've fallen for that one in a VERY long time. It looked so genuine too.
Oh just another fun thing came to my mind : what if there IS an even on the 27th BUT no MBP announced ??
That would be Awesome!
It's like 30-50% increase
So maybe about .55"-0.6" ??
Man, everybody knows that mail bombing is useless and probably Tim is drinking sake in Japan caring only about Samurai Watch Bands and Japanese flag emojis.
The problem is that, after 3 years (aka 36 months) of illusions and useless waiting, event after event, we're stuck in the loop of eternal days of hoping and there's still nothing factual or real, only RUMOURS about a 27th October event. We're desperately trying to find something to fill time without just scrolling this thread or refreshing Apple.com homepage.
Trust me, if only we had a f****g invite or a stupid 2 words confirmation by Tim, Gurman, Virgin Mary or Jesus Christ himself.... everyone here would chill down, relax and happily keep waiting.
Looks like some Apple products are going out to pasture.
So long and fair well.

How are you guys doing?
After reflecting on my past 2 weeks, I realized that:
- I slept at 3 AM almost everyday trying to read news on the MacBook Pros
- Always felt tired for school in the morning
- Skipped several gym sessions and hangouts with friends
This obsession over the Macs is becoming ridiculous. I say scr*w it. I just downloaded Borderlands 2, Skyrim and Fallout 3 to my desktop PC, hopefully I can survive until the end of October. If Macs are coming in March (they'd better not) I'll look for other hobbies to keep me occupied.
I swear I'll only check this thread once daily.

I'm playing Stronghold campaign at the moment, almost completed. Good old times.

How do you guys think they pick their events mottos ? Ask their teams to generate using the team.generate() method ?
