Waiting for Skylake MBP thread

[ConnorMcJeebus]

Well, on the bright side...if they want macOS to run smoothly they have to update the hardware at some point, right? RIGHT?! Please someone tell me I'm right...

 

[crankmeup]

What the ***k? Is that it?

I had a dream that the crowd would start chanting "MacBook Pro", when it was about to end, but sadly not

 

[omenatarhuri]

Was that it!? I guess its a developer conference, but still

There wasn't a whole lot for developers apart from new APIs.

 

[doctorwhofan98]

Didn't expect new hardware but was hoping for at least more useful features for macOS. Some of the new stuff will be nice on all platforms, but just blown away they would add so much stuff to messages. That came out of left field.

Thought March was worse by far though.

Okay so September maybe all new Mac lineup across the board? Maybe even the coveted Mac Pro?

The only issue is that September will be dominated by iPhone 7 and Watch 2 at the very least, and possibly also iPad Pro 2. There likely isn't going to be stage time for the MBP, so unless they hold an October event, the wait could theoretically go into 2017!

That was a solid keynote. Disappointing no new hardware, but oh well. They are literally updating everything OS with incredible new capabilities and technologies across all their products and services.

tell me one incredible capability introduced in the new macOS, except for the copy and paste feature. I literally just finished watching the keynote and I cant remember.

@Serban Predicted everything right btw guys well done him!!!

There might be a slight uptick in Dell sales this week. September is a long way away when these new chips are already in other notebooks.

They spent so little time on macOS compared to everything else. It doesn't bode well

What was the deal with the staggered hinge shipments (13" only)?

 

[fakeycakemaker]

How do I get this? It's brilliant!

Tim Cook should be fired

 

[Oppenheim]

Apple are in trouble with their development community.

You cannot plan based on this.

Very annoyed. I would have bought Spring 2015 if there was a proper roadmap.

Hype and secrecy and aura appears to trump the needs of the Apple developer community.

Bad form. But the dent is meaningless because MBPs are such a tiny percentage of the Mac segment of the pie that the corporate executives see.

 

[dallegre]

I need a new MBP. What is the best alternative model out there right now?

It really depends on what combination of size/power you're looking for.

 

[Zillion]

Lets extrapolate today's event innovations to the new MBP.

 

[bglen]

Good bye guys. See you in September!!!!

And then........... nothing happened. You won't see me in September. I'm selling the last of my apple stuff. My mac mini was too slow for my photo processing and i've been waiting for the upgrade. Bye apple.....

 

[Grolubao]

A virtual hug to you all...

Thanks man. #feelsbadman

I really miss Steve. He cared about the Mac.

[StandardFlint]

To everyone who feels bad, just remember, people actually had to pay to be there.

 

[bglen]

Tim Cook should be fired

agreed

 

[Uni Grad]

Gurman was right all along. Why did I ever doubt him?

 

[Jonneke]

Hey, but at least we probably can enjoy some more vague rumors now!

 

[Letup]

Gurman was right all along. Why did I ever doubt him?

Has Gurman said a date of their announcement or did he just say not at WWDC?

 

[svintdovronski]

well I'm off to buy a surface book see you in september!
