The "pro" argument doesn't hold weight due to the iPad Pro. I'm not sure the logistics thing is valid; no matter what guts you select, the bodies are all the same, no?
I just realised that prices for the newest MB have gone up by almost 250$ in Norway 
Surely hope they're not planning the same for the new rMBP
Whereas the current rMBP is ≈ 120$ cheaper in the largest electronics store...

Im a pro user...and id be fine with 2 usb c ports...one usb c and the other tb3.
However, I would like a seperate port for power. If thinness is a problem...Apple should just put in a smart connector charging system
We will see... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Only a month and some weeks left right?
Cute, 404 pages.

Digitimes article states "MacBooks" and second half of the year; MBP will be updated before then.
MacBooks were just refreshed, and second half starts on July. Models could be announced in WWDC and made available in the second half (a.k.a July). Plus, it's not the first time the names have been switched. There were rumors in 2014 and early 2015 about a 12" Air. I don't need to go on, we all know what was released on on the March Event 2015.

Page 404, MacBook Pros not found.
If it loses any of Quad-core, thunderbolt or headphone jack, I'm buying the current model. But it won't!
I agree with most of what you've said, and think you're probably right ^^ all i'm saying is, there is very little concrete information, even in the form of rumors from china, about the iPhone 7. Do you have any rumours to link about the iphone 7 having 2GB of RAM?
Also, I know basically nothing about OLED. Can someone explain to me what the differences/advantages/disadvantages are between OLED vs. LED? (sorry, this is going way off topic)
the only big flaw about OLED and still happening in the latest S7, burn-in, every time. but power cons is lower, you have perfect black,samsung have with super amoled same brightness level or almost on par with lcd
you said oled vs led...oled is organicled
the big downside of oled is today standards in tech low life time
if you want to keep the oled display for more than 4-5 years will you get a wash out display in time

My 2013 rMBP only has 5 cycles. The reason for this is I have had the battery replaced once and the trackpad replaced 2 or 3 times. Every time there is something wrong with my trackpad (which is shortly every time they repair my laptop) they have to replace the battery and keyboard too because it's all connected. So in the last year I have had 3 to 4 new batteries in my 2013 rMBP 13". I have an extended applecare plan and haven't paid an additional dime for all of the repairs. But my trackpad is acting up again. I will wait to take it in again and am waiting for wwdc when they announce (for sure) the new 2016 Skylake macbook pro's.

Thats even better....however I would still require a seperate port for charging. They can fit it in if they WANT to...but will they? I think theres only one port on the rMB because its a design statement. However for the Pro they might play it safe and introduce MagSafe 3 or do something like the iPad Pro smart connector.
yes you will have 2 ports, and from both you can charge your mac. but that theory with smart connector we heard some rumours that can act like a charging port for the Mbp
Trying to think of a reason why they'd do this. Touchscreens are no option, OSX isn't optimized for that, unless the next version is. Then again, a touchscreen would make it look like some kind of iPad/Mac mix, something Tim Cook swore not to release.
But hey, maybe it'll be something stunning! (and, of course, available in Rose Go... errr Pink
Well if you could take the screen off a 15 rMBP or fold it right back and draw on it with the pencil, I'd be happy
It's going to happen one day...they could do it now if it wasn't for the fact it would kill yer iPad Pro...probably...
What about where in the invitation it says love at first swipe, I think that may mean touch screen rMBP's. Do you think?Well if you could take the screen off a 15 rMBP or fold it right back and draw on it with the pencil, I'd be happy

Nah..not yet..though I would be made up if so and it would be a move into 'the future' IMO.
I've got a traditional Wacom hooked up to the latest top end iMac..a 2010 MBP that I've modded along the way and has been absolutely great...I'm holding on for the next iteration..but would just love to draw on screen..
Even thinking of buying a dell xps 15 plus iPad Pro over the new rMBP ...( when they ineviatable drop the xps price on new rMBP arrival)

I dont know why anyone would want a Laptop with a touchscreen. Similar to the people ordering keyboards for their iPads. I just don't get it. But i don't need to i guess
I agree there is not much use to it. The only thing I tend to do on touch screens is scrolling through web pages and documents.
