... I was really afraid this moment would have come.
I bought mine 4 or 5 months ago.. and terrible rumors (for me) came after.. "the new MacBookPro will be faster, ligher, will have a touch screen..."

Ok, actualy is faster.. not so much, it has the new led display that probably is better.. and more ram.. but nothing really revolutionary

I feel safe.
I can start waiting for the next announcemnt (with terror)

eh - the new screen apparently will only extend your battery time, and unless your are a design/production professional where every tick of the clock brings you closer to a deadline, you probably aren't missing out on anything important. (i bought my MBP last October and while the geek in me would like the latest/greatest... I feel pretty content)

Look at it this way, a year from now you will see bigger improvements in all aspects of the machine - you can sell your current one and look forward to your new beauty. ;)

I know that feeling. I bought a Macbook in August 2006. I lived in fear for months hoping they wouldn't update the laptops ;)

I know, I know, it's sad and I should get help for it ... But so do you! And probably everyone who reads this site.
