Waiting for Skylake MBP thread

no invites ?

Might take a few minutes before someone who got one posts about it. I'd give it a

They say "Nothing confirmed yet" however they point now to September 6, while before (week ago?) it said just 'September' or Q4 or so... I hadn't heard September 6 before? anyone?

I think that has said September 6th for quite a while. Don't know why they think it's the 6th though. Maybe because it's Tuesday and most events are on Tuesdays.

When was the last time we were not disappointed?

i'd say june 2012.

New possible event date March 2017

i've heard that's taken for watch bands.

Yaaay, let's all get disappointed again...

isn't that why we're all here in the first place?

"What's An Event?"

introducing: Skylake MacBookPro 2016 OTA update.

I hate you

"Hate" is such a strong word, use the phrase, "I dislike you". Yeah, that's a lot more pleasant.

• Invite: Thursday, August 28th 2014 (12 days prior)

In recent history, with the exception of the hardware event in October of 2014, each invite came Wednesday or Thursday, just shy of two weeks prior to the event.

They're making even the event invites thinner.
Apple will send them the day after the event.

the pro version will have slightly heavier cardstock though, according to Ming Kuo and my neighbors yappy dog.

Perhaps the Pro invite font will be Silian Rail? Or even have (*Gasp*) a watermark!?

I think the wait is driving us all psycho!

I love it. I think this is the perfect line-up and it is here to stay.

Shut up, shut it I say!!!!

Well, the "good" news is, any delay makes it more likely we can "celebrate" the 500 days anniversary of the current rMBP and/or the 1000 page milestone of this thread…

No I think the apple tv, iPads pro and MacBook should be on don't buy well and then it's perfect.

Red is my favourite colour. Give me more red, Apple.

Regarding that; hitting 1000 pages before september 7 is getting increasingly unlikely. So is september 7 as the day of the event...

How did they manage that many pages in under 4 months?

Is the consensus that there won't be quad core Skylake parts released for the 15" this year?

To be honest if the current 15" had 14nm Broadwell I would just buy it no questions asked and take advantage of the back to school offer. However I am worried about missing out on potential efficiency/heat/battery life improvements in the move to 14nm.

Unless I'm horribly mistaken: appropriate Skylake CPUs are available, Kaby Lake are not and won't be.

This picture made me laugh and cry at the same time.
I seriously wonder what are the great innovation, and what they working on, considering that every product is outdated.
Seriously Tim, dafùq?!

The ole 2010 XPS stopped opening programs. I have to click 4-5 times now for some reason.

It's hard to tell because I'm so used to clicking Chrome or Lightroom, browsing my phone (mostly this thread) for 5 minutes and then returning to the laptop when the program is finally open. It's made me a very patient person.

I think I watched a whole episode of Pokemon while waiting for it to restart yesterday.

And no, I haven't put in an SSD. At this point, it's not worth the trouble.

Who knows what's going on. Seems like someone is not ready here to announce and present stuff
