Woo it's better and last longer Fri, 29 Feb 2008 13:46:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (mors) Comments http://osnews.com/thread?302998 http://osnews.com/thread?302998 I was thinking about whether to get a new Macbook Pro, and the news of this refresh was what I needed to push me over the edge. After a long time eyeing Macs enviously, I will soon be initiated into the cult.

Comments http://osnews.com/thread?303048 http://osnews.com/thread?303048 To tell the truth, since Apple introduced their new Penryn-based MacBooks, life has been so much better.
The water's cleaner, the air's fresher, and I do believe that food just tastes better. And much like their previous offerings I'm sure that these new Apple models are faster than any other computer in the world ever created by any company, ever!
Awesome!
I love Apple.

Truthfully, I would love to have one of these. I'm jealous that I don't and won't have the funds to obtain one for a long while.Edited 2008-03-01 02:36 UTC Sat, 01 Mar 2008 02:30:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (milatchi) Comments http://osnews.com/thread?303059 http://osnews.com/thread?303059 A refresh had been due for a while and when the new CPUs were announced it was almost a certainty.

I'm considering getting a laptop soon so this is good timing...

You are so mysterious!

Seriously though, put a 17" LED hi res screen one on order with the 512MB high speed VRAM. I want to do an occasional game now. I have an original Mac mini with PPC processor as my toe-dipping tiny foray into all Mac goodness and you know what, I tried it and I like it! -- but an old PPC processor isn't actually a screaming deamon nor good for the occasional PC game.

I would have waited for the yet-rumour-mongered again update to occur in June (which means more like August or late in the year for Apple to get around to implementing) it update.

It is a minor update but I'm now in and playing the waiting game for the box to show up because I get a tax break and income tax is done midyear here and August is unfortunately too late to get in this years return... Mon, 03 Mar 2008 01:43:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Old IT Guy) Comments
