Waiting for Skylake MBP thread

[volcomvenom]

Good luck tomorrow guys.

And good luck winning the jackpot Killawat.

My "new" mid2015 rMBP is great and I bought it right on time. I am happy

Hopefully we will have some more answers, clues tomorrow. Or, heavy tendensies to reach for the xannies and booze..

@nicovh good for you, that's how to be happy in life to be content.

Just one day left!!!
Respecting the tradition, I will get completely drunk tonight.
See ya, guys.

Aren't we supposed to drink during the event? Or after either to celebrate or wash away the pain?

2016-Retina MacBookPro, Mac Pro, Mac Mini

Yes

Damn, 20+ hrs and just 4 Xanax left

Well, you could down all 4 Xanny's with a bottle of Tequila and wake up in October when they're actually released.

Guys, anything I missed?

WWDC Hardware History:
1996-PowerMac previewed
1997-Nothing
1998-Nothing
1999-Lombard PowerBooks
2001-LCD flat panel display, PowerMacG4
2002-Nothing
2003-PowerMac, iSight
2004-23/30inch CinemaDisplay
2005-x86 Macs
2006-MacPro with Xeon
2007-Nothing
2008-iPhone 3G
2009-MacBookPro, iPhone 3GS
2010-iPhone 4
2011-Nothing
2012-Retina MacBookPro, New MacBook Air
2013-Mac Pro, AirPort, AirPort Time Capsule
2014-Nothing
2015-Nothing

This is actually a pretty good argument FOR the MBP being updated tomorrow.

The most recent major Macbook Pro announcements (2009 13" MBP and 2012 rMBP) have happened at WWDC. The original unibody macbook pro (Oct 2008) was the only recent modern mac to break this pattern. Prior to that most major hardware announcements happened at Macworld in January (which Apple stopped attending I believe after the 2008 MBA release).

Just drawing at straws probably. I'm not even in the market for a new computer. I just want to know NOW!

It's so weird that everything else about timing seems to point to WWDC, except for the rumor of no hardware... 14 hours

 

[jp5]

Has anyone used the 2014 Thinkpad X1 which had similar touchbar? Hopefully Apple's implementation will be more organic.

I think Tim needs to come up with a new catch phrase if there is a surprise at the end. One more thing feels kinda eerie and sort of awkward to hear coming from him.

It worked for the Apple watch. I mean, it did sound kinda forced, but the crowd definitely got the message/impact and acknowledged with a standing ovation. I wouldn't mind a one more thing as long as its truly innovative. Don't "one more thing" for some watch bands or a new minute feature of photos. Maybe a car or the new MacBooks.

Why is it at the Bill Graham Civic Center if it's only about software? Isn't the WWDC Keynote usually in Mosconi West?

 

[Mattsasa]

I thought we were supposed to get to 700 pages by Monday. We're slacking

 

[powertoold]

I can't wait another three months!!! Please help me Tim Cook!!

It has been historically, but I believe the move is just for logistical reasons. Is there any reason the Bill Graham Civic Center would be more relevant to hardware?

I disagree. If it is something big and new i think they should ALWAYS use this phrase as it reminds us who really made apple.

It kind of pisses me off but I guess I have to agree with you.

To my knowledge, there have been hardware announcements during every keynote at the Civic Center!!!

Two more things?

"One less Thing."
"Watch, bands!"
"iHave one Thing to show you."
Okay these are bad... Must be the tension kicking in.

Guys I have an exam week this week, I can't afford it to watch the live stream... (I will though)
Let's hope for new MBP's!

No slip in ship times, store still up......not looking good

I thought Apple recently updated the store so it didn't have to go down for product refreshes?

 

[killawat]

Store usually won't drop this late unless its for a launch period. It can still go down right before the Timnote.

 

[Uni Grad]

That could just indicate that the new Pros will be sold later on.

Doubt that there will be any effect on the Apple Stores... most likely that if anything, it will only be an announcement of the new rMPBs. Availability will most likely not occur until July/August.
