Waiting for Skylake MBP thread

[Cougarcat]

Anyone ever ordered through signing up for a barclay visa? Is the approval process instantaneous or....

Mine wasn't, but I think that's because I had fraud protection on my SSN due to some recent fraud. In any case it's just a quick phone call. You can sign up for the card now, before the keynote. Doesn't have to be at the time of purchase.

One hour to go! The excitement is real

bye everybody!

I'll be lurking around the hottest 'got my skylake/skylake reviews' threads and maybe even pop in to 'waiting for kaby lake' if that's the route i decide to go. Given i've got a work-issued 2015 15" MBP there's personally no need to dive into a purchase straight off the hop, so i'll be one less person you need to compete with.

Enjoy your new MBP's everyone, it's been a hell of a ride.

How do people find that out? I'm crazy, but not crazy enough to start on page 1 and go on checking!

Go to your profile page and sift thru all your postings until you get to your first on this amazing thread
Haven't been so active so for me it was on page 2.

Do it and be a bad dad for a day!

Just put my 2015 15/2.5/1TB on eBay. Bring on the goodness, Apple!

Long-time lurker here...this feels like a defining moment! Can't wait to snap up the new 15 inch MBP. Learning coding on an 11" 2012 MBA has been terrible for my eyes. So thanks for a great thread you guys and gals!

So let's get drunk and max out that AmEx.

Calling it 45 minutes talking about the Apple TV "the future of Television is apps y'aaaalll" 15 minutes on the Mac, end of event.

Whoa I started posting to this thread at page 140, I didn't know that until now.

Legend says that if you buy the current MBP model 10 mins before the event, then the whole Apple executive team will send you a special video and a free iPod.

that is what happens when you nothing to show so you fill it up with fluff (**** in my opinion) just for the heck of it.

This thread moves way too fast to provide any meaningful conversation

Exactly.

Everybody outside the US zones out knowing that none of these services will ever be available in their country.

Good job not eating bread that is carb loaded.

I was just thinking - what apple did last time they upgraded the macbook pros is the released the new version that people were sketched out about (huge price bump, no use replaceable hardware) along side buffed versions of the status quo and then slowly faded it out. That was great because it reduced any outrage about changes to nothing. What they do now is make bold changes that piss a lot of people off and basically say "deal with it", which is very infuriating. I wish they would release an old style rMBP with new processors here along side the no usb, no mag-safe, butterfly keyboard, no escape key, screw you MBP but I think those days are over.
