Look up the word "If". I pointed out that manufactures that dont care about iris pro are making laptops in 2015.
Got a tip for us?

butterfly keyboard is a negative but it's something you get used to
Haha thanks. Its definitely a magical place. I just moved to Victoria B.C. for college. Already missing it. But anyways, even though I have no intention of upgrading, if they come out with a space gray I might just succumb and buy it.I'm with you. I'm far more interested in the other aspects of a redesign than which CPUs and when they'll ship.
Lovely place you live, by the way.
There is only one part so far, and Apple love to sell CPU upgrade options. If they choose to release now, with only one GT4e enabled CPU, they have to get rid of their valued option and I can't see them make this choice. Sadly.
sorry but i have a macbook and a 15" mbp and the way you type on the MB is different but is more accurate and faster...and when i look at the MBP keyboard i think is ugly with all that space between the buttons and at night with all that light leak
Keyboards are a personal thing, but I tried it for two weeks and went from not liking it to hating it. Most people will probably get used to it. I didn't.
Colors, for sure. Keyboard? Display? Bezel(-less)? USB A -> USB C? TB3? Other port changes? Lots of things Apple could tweak (or ignore) beyond CPU, integrated/discrete graphics, storage and RAM! Or not.
You are wrong. Nothing special about October 2013. Last exclusive was the MacBook Air launch in 2008. One event in the last 7 years does not make a trend.
Those xeons do not have gt4e graphics.
They have Intel hd graphics p530. I.e. No edram.
The Macbook 12" keyboard is painfully slow to type on and very easy to make mistakes. I dare you to get over 200 CPM in a typing test.
Really hope that Apple will not use it in the MBP. It is a tradeoff of ergonomics for internal space and nothing else. It is not a superior keyboard.
MSI is shipping their gaming laptops 27. Sep with skylake. Pigs are flying.
Then what was this?

Also, I never said anything remotely close to the word "trend."
When has Apple always been the company to ALWAYS adopt latest tech the fastest? They usually are last
It's going to be funny over the next 5-7 months watching you same guys who think Skylake is "around the corner" continually post that "it's coming soon"
Force Touch. Retina Displays in phones and later in laptops. 5k. USB Type C. Terraced battery sheets. I mean I could go on if you need me to.
EDIT: Re-read your post and realized it made no sense. If Apple is slow to adopt a tech once, they can't qualify to be the company that ALWAYS is the fastest. So ignore my post, your statement is just inherently unreasonable.
Information in that article is wrong. There are only 2 Xeon CPUs released and neither has edram.

It is a rumor article. The CPUs released for the 15" MacBook Pro the 4750hq/4850hq/4950hq were not available for Apple before any other manufacturer.
Maybe a better example then. Apple requested custom Arrandale without iGPU, and then added a custom integrated Nvidia chip. Obviously this is different than Apple asking Intel to make them a chip.

To be clear, I'm not saying Skylake MBPs are coming in October. I'm saying it's not unheard of that Apple requests things specially made from Intel. If Apple does indeed come out with Skylake this year, I imagine that's what they would do.
