Still have an O.G Pro, who'd thought it could last this long.
...I have my Mac Pro for work though...

Apple's planned obsolescence in action: today my 4 years old MB Pro just switched itself off in split second, with no warning.

Gonna be a sad day getting rid of my trusty G5, but looking forward to getting a faster MacBook Pro 15"

GeorgesIII you're such a shit stirrer! ha. Love it though... carry on.
So what's the short of it regarding the new 15" pro then? Is it a big leap? I've never been that interested the gubbins inside various tech. It's a tools to do the job which what my iBook G4 has been doing very well for years with no issues but it's time to upgrade as I dropped it and it went pop! It's only used for meetings and working on site so no huge loss but does need replacing.
Oh and just for the record, I've never owned a PC in my life. Learnt on a Mac Classic then bought a Quadra 650, then G3 desktop etc.. So no not to be one of the cool kids. Just because I think they work without me worrying about the tech.

Not only battery life is shorter, the hi-res option seems to be gone from the 15" model.
- What a crock.Raniator
- I love how they can bring out a new product that is actually worse than the previous one.Raniator
- hi-res option is still on the 15" dude.kona
- OK, it is in the store, was only gone from specs.raf

Hey, do I need to clean up my safari cache?
I mean, where's the update?

I'm not sure but are there many 'thunderbolt' peripherals out already? or is it something apple is betting on? It's a good to have faster data transfers but in reality, a common user is not going to transfer gigs of information to and from their computer. Thunderbolt seems useless at the moment and similar to electric scissors, see video.
I will conceed that apple's marketing team is great.

Didn't someone say the i7 processor has overheating issues or is that not true?
- genfour0
hmmmm maybe I shall settle on a refurb
- genfour0
ahhh cool just noticed refurb prices did drop up to 26%... for some reason the wrong prices are up until you add the item to your cart
2.53 ghz 15" + antiglare for $1569.00? hmmm

I'm thinking about buying a 13" MBP.
I'm feeling quite ashamed of myself.
