- phibach, on 02/26/2008, -5/+368Apple Remote is no longer included.
- hrush0327, on 02/26/2008, -4/+162removing the apple remote - starting to remove all extras like they did on the ipod with the dock and other accessories
- TajesMahoney, on 02/26/2008, -3/+139hoorah! My laptop is now outdated!
- jagnum1fan, on 02/26/2008, -10/+144Where is the SDK!??!?!
- TheWorm, on 02/26/2008, -6/+92Are they EVER going to redesign the case?
Also, it's the last Tuesday in February. Where's that SDK they were promising this month? - ddfall, on 02/26/2008, -0/+67I've got the last generation MBP and mine did come with it which was nice. This reminds me of the iPod's of a few years ago. Remember when they came with a dock, sometimes A/V cables, etc.? That'll be the day. I'd be surprised if the next iPhone comes with a dock still...
- TheWorm, on 02/26/2008, -4/+57Were you expecting them to make a slower one?
- hutch113, on 02/26/2008, -11/+59Still no DVD burner at the $1099 price point. Still not worth my money.
- kingfoot, on 02/26/2008, -2/+49$19 if you add it as an option too...
- Fedorian, on 02/26/2008, -21/+64that's it? jeez
- node3, on 02/26/2008, -3/+45Oh, is that all...
- autoatsakiklis, on 02/26/2008, -0/+41I wonder how much Apple saves offering combo drive in cheapest macbook version.
- Synthesize, on 02/26/2008, -16/+53Underwhelming.
- inajeep, on 02/26/2008, -8/+41Mine is still in the wrapper not used so I may see a reason behind that one.
- MiddleOfNowhere, on 02/26/2008, -0/+32Why *should* they redesign the case?
I am sitting in front of a MacBook Pro right now. I have been using computers for almost 25 years, starting with a C64. This here is the most beautiful and slick machine I ever owned. I don't know how the design could be improved except for tiny details.
This is what Antoine Saint-Exupery meant when he said: "Perfection is achieved not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away."
Faster processors, higher resolution displays, more storage? Bring'em on. Change the minimalist design? Please don't. - yokozuka, on 02/26/2008, -8/+38The article and the Digg wasn't speculative at all. Please don't be a jerk and accuse us falsely of *****. We got the official Apple press release note BEFORE the Apple Store came back up and the MacBook pages were updated. It happens often. Sometimes, it's the contrary.
We posted the very second the note hit our mails, with FULL CORRECT info. A few seconds after the article was posted, both Apple pages and the Apple Store pages changed. - neoseeker191, on 02/26/2008, -12/+39Wow and to think I was excited about this update. Disappointed.
- joeycerone, on 02/26/2008, -11/+33hoping for a multitouch trackpad firmware update for my old macbook pro :)
- tw0bit, on 02/26/2008, -0/+21can i have one?
- TheWorm, on 02/26/2008, -2/+23No, you actually do pay about a 150 dollar premium to get black.
- matsbs, on 05/19/2009, -17/+37Bought it!
- dykast, on 02/26/2008, -0/+20Previous SR C2D Macbooks could use 4gb of ram.
- jagnum1fan, on 02/26/2008, -0/+20Obviously this is your first time on digg otherwise you would have known that they were going to release new MBP's soon
- becknell, on 02/26/2008, -2/+20And it's on the way, this will be my Iraq computer for the second half of this year.
- techpr, on 02/26/2008, -1/+19still no updated Mini.
- rsek, on 02/26/2008, -4/+22wow, 3 USB inputs
- gstep, on 02/26/2008, -0/+18"no multitouch for the MacBook"
Because nobody would buy the Air if they made a cheaper macbook with more features. - nunofgs, on 02/26/2008, -0/+18school?
- wiiittttt, on 02/26/2008, -9/+27Not only is it ugly, it doesn't have the iLife '08 software that makes an Apple computer appealing to many people and lacks the multi-touch trackpad. On top of that, it runs Vista, isn't that enough reason not to buy it?
- Urkel, on 02/26/2008, -5/+23They're still charging extra for black. White has been eliminated entirely from the rest of the Mac lineup so isn't it time to phase out white and allow black to be a color choice rather than a premium?
- AdmiralKarelia, on 02/26/2008, -1/+18If by "almost", you mean "exactly".
- FDL1, on 02/26/2008, -6/+23/me waits for refurbs and used ones' price to drop
- freshyill, on 02/26/2008, -1/+18And what version of Mac OS X does it come with? Oh, wait, nevermind.
- rauz, on 02/26/2008, -1/+18I play all the modern games on my MBP using Bootcamp. Granted, it forces me to use Windows XP but I can live with the pain.
- ddfall, on 02/26/2008, -1/+17Some where in Cupertino...
- foxter, on 02/26/2008, -3/+19Yes, the MBP is still appealing. In fact, I like both laptops. Now stop pushing your preferences on other people you hypocritical clod.
- m00nmaster, on 02/26/2008, -1/+17Just because you don't use it doesn't mean it useless. I love the remote, but it's not worth 19 bucks.
- jpb0104, on 02/26/2008, -0/+16What were you expecting? These updates are exactly what the rumor sites have been speculating for 2 months. And especially not a bad update for a non-event bump. I think most people are excited about the update because they have been putting off a new MBP cause they knew the machines were due for a bump.
I do think we will see a new form-factor MBP next year. But not this year. - TheWorm, on 02/26/2008, -0/+15Yes, The iMac being a desktop.
- Thud, on 02/26/2008, -1/+16Look on the bright side... at least you'll get an Apple Remote. :)
- inactive, on 02/26/2008, -0/+14Whoops, I'm incorrect, you're absolutely right. Apologies for the misinfo there.
- Zippo, on 02/26/2008, -2/+16I use my Apple Remote with my Macbook Pro all the time... comes in handy for music and Front Row.
- derjames, on 02/26/2008, -4/+18wow, detachable battery...
- drouk1556, on 02/26/2008, -0/+14Next time your iPod is plugged in, under the Summary tab uncheck "Open iTunes when this iPod is connected."
Problem solved. - Narbo, on 02/26/2008, -0/+14Only the 17" model has 3. The 15" models have 2. This is exactly the same as the previous generation so nothing has changed.
- CokeBear, on 02/26/2008, -0/+13You clowns. It has been all over the rumor mill for months now, that an update to the MacBook Pro was coming. Even if you're not obsessively checking the rumor sites daily, before you purchase an Apple product you would be dumb to not at least glance at this page:
http://buyersguide.macrumors.com/
to see where in the product cycle you are. The information is out there, so I have no sympathy for pathetic people who don't check, and then whine about it after the fact. - SHv2, on 02/26/2008, -3/+15i wouldn't call vista ultimate a feature...
- citor, on 02/26/2008, -2/+14well I guess you primarily got dugg down because of the way you replied to joeycerone. There was no reason at all for you to call him a moron.
- TomScrace, on 02/26/2008, -1/+13Looks pretty official to me. The annoying thing is how many duplicates there are on Digg about this story.
- cerberus04, on 02/26/2008, -1/+12I was being reminiscent of when they last updated the Mac Pro, boasting it was the fastest Mac ever. I found myself asking your exact question.
