- consonance, on 02/16/2008, -2/+54Everyone is interpreting the signs wrong. Obviously Apple is going out of business. Everyone should have seen it coming. Didn't you read their last quarterly report, people!?!?! /sarcasm
- neckaros, on 02/16/2008, -0/+18I hope there will be a design refresh (especially magnetic latch)
- FoxOrian, on 02/16/2008, -0/+13I'm glad I got my Santa Rosa MBP back in the summer of '07
I've had it long enough to not feel bad about the coming refresh. New chips and speeds are always good, but I'm also skeptical because I'm afraid of a possible makeover to look more like the MacBook Air. --- I like the way the MacBook Pro currently looks through and through. [No to black keys!]
I have the LED backlight on mine now, so I'm pretty well set for a long, long time. - ReBeLaCe, on 02/16/2008, -3/+15All i know is all channels are dry. We sold out of all laptop models (cept the air) and we can't order anymore.
- ajkdajkd, on 02/16/2008, -2/+13Amazon has a rebate on current MacBook Pro models where purchases have to be made by Monday February 18. Perhaps this means new MBP's are coming on Tuesday February 19.

- zman1117, on 02/16/2008, -3/+10So then, you mean a macbook pro?
- atdakore, on 02/16/2008, -2/+9Apple Store still says 24hrs shipping on all macbook pros, and that hardly ever lies.
- TheIguana, on 02/16/2008, -0/+7About bloody time, Penryn has been out for how long?
- setrusko, on 02/16/2008, -4/+11MBPs are by far the best notebooks out there.

- inactive, on 02/16/2008, -4/+10what you mean like a macbook?
- CCB0x45, on 02/16/2008, -1/+7We heard you the first 3 times.
- inactive, on 02/16/2008, -0/+6I am hoping they change the keyboard of the MBP to be more like the Macbook and the Air, I love the splaces between the keys. It actually had something to do with why I have not gotten one yet.
- Rev0lver, on 02/16/2008, -0/+5Nice. I'm glad I got my Pro back in June of 07 - I was worried the refresh was going to come a lot sooner, thereby screwing me over. It's bad enough Leopard got delayed at around the same time.
- MonkeyFarts, on 02/16/2008, -0/+5Yeah but 13" is the perfect size for portability, so having something as highly portable as the MB/MBA, yet as powerful as the MBP, would be awesome.
- songfire, on 02/16/2008, -2/+7Kind of off topic, but...Did anyone else out there wish that the Air was going to be a 13" macbook pro instead? Swap out the DVD drive and put in a graphics card, you have something as small as a macbook but as powerful as a pro, with the price somewhere in between.
- inactive, on 02/16/2008, -0/+5I like the big screen of the current MBPs, 13 inches just seems so small to me.
- inactive, on 02/16/2008, -0/+5Come oooon BlueRay drive.
- amjustice, on 02/16/2008, -0/+4AMEN! I got a bunch of Apple Gift cards for Christmas and have been waiting ever since to get a new Macbook Pro. Hopefully they will announce new ones at the rumored iPhone SDK event on the 26th!
- vinbot, on 02/16/2008, -0/+4Prediction/wish:
1) LED backlit HD display (for longer battery life)
2) Flash hard drive (an expensive option I won't be able to afford, but the sooner they release em, the sooner the prices drop to sane levels)
3) Blu-ray (I wish HD DVD had won the format war, but as they say - If wishes were horses, beggars would ride) - Nin10dude, on 02/16/2008, -0/+3So, to put it simply, you just want the power and screen size of a MacBook Pro in the thinness of a MacBook Air?
...Don't you think there's a reason why the MacBook Air is as weak as it is? - jasonh1234, on 02/18/2008, -0/+3Every Tuesday that has gone by without the MBP refresh has caused a little piece inside of me to die. God I hope it's on the 19th!
- foxter, on 02/17/2008, -0/+3*clears throat*
Pssst! Pssst!
Actually they can run OS X. Albeit not legally, but they can. - zman1117, on 02/16/2008, -1/+3No necessarily. Amazon always has rebates on Macbook Pros that last a month or so. When that one expires, they just put a new one up. But it is interesting to note that its from 1/29 - 2/18 instead of 1/29 - 2/29.
- Barbarino, on 02/16/2008, -0/+2What about the Mini???? i know the second I buy it they come out with a new one!
- avions, on 02/16/2008, -0/+2I hate the black keys as well. I hope they keep them silver or go white.
- AvidPreatorian, on 02/16/2008, -1/+3that would be a macbook pro, air is an addition to a desktop or a home computer. it's not really meant to be a stand along machine.
- inactive, on 02/17/2008, -1/+3Um Sony actually gives you options along with portability. Apple, um??! An envelope?
And even Apple reviewers say its performance is poor and call it a great "internet device"!
Sorry but we need real notebooks. Shipping date of new Sony laptops with Penryn chips Feb. 22nd, Apple lags behind as usual. - AvidPreatorian, on 02/16/2008, -1/+3$1,999.99 - STANDARD MODEL; 2,499.99 - ENHANCED MODEL
- blorc, on 02/16/2008, -0/+2My store hasn't run out, although none are currently on order admittedly. I guess we'll see. I just got a couple on a truck yesterday, though.
- Nexum, on 02/16/2008, -0/+2Yeah, I got the original MBP, and the backlight has dimmed over the past two years (I'm not complaining, any other portable would be just as bad). I do have it on ~ 12 hours a day though. The main thing I worry about is the CF backlight blowing altogether, I've seen this a few times, and know it's expensive. If I had the LED backlight, there's not much that could convince me to upgrade until a 4 core Nehalem.
- bjornski, on 02/17/2008, -1/+3Awwww, turtleneck a bit too tight today?
- neckaros, on 02/16/2008, -0/+245nm architecture is a big change. Especially for power/watt (better battery life) and heat.
- inactive, on 02/16/2008, -0/+2A BR drive is what I am most hoping for.
- antoniojvr, on 02/17/2008, -0/+2Did your mom not hug you enough?
- consonance, on 02/16/2008, -0/+2One should note that MacMall is running closeout specials on MBPs. Suspicious, no?
http://www.macmall.com/macmall/families/macbookpro ... - stalefries, on 02/16/2008, -0/+1If they announce within 10 days of purchase, you can get a free trade-up, or something like that.
- tim04, on 02/17/2008, -0/+1"internet device", I'm pretty sure I've got cellphones that do that quite well for 1/10th the price
- moisie, on 02/18/2008, -0/+1And if Apple announces new MBP's tomorrow with immediate shipping?
- mogebier, on 02/16/2008, -0/+1Shaddap if you don't understand sarcasm.
- deadnoob, on 02/16/2008, -0/+1i wouldnt be surprised. it looks like apple is heading for a long year of announcements.
- rebotfc, on 02/18/2008, -0/+1I think his mom hugged him to much if you know what i mean.
- foxter, on 02/17/2008, -0/+1And if beggars were horses, I'd wish Blu-ray won the format war.
- antoniojvr, on 02/17/2008, -0/+1I think it's because you are wrong.
- tim04, on 02/17/2008, -0/+1it doesn't seem to be priced that way
- bjornski, on 02/16/2008, -1/+2Hehehe, dugg down.
Sense of humor observation proven. - donna1234, on 07/18/2008, -0/+1Inventory of MacBook Pros has become severely constrained over the past three weeks

http://www.highpr.net/ - AvidPreatorian, on 02/16/2008, -2/+3i like Sony's laptops but MacBooks are superior by far, and Leopard is a big part of that.
- Derrelicte, on 02/16/2008, -0/+1Haha...my friend *just* bought an MBP. She will be pretty pissed.
