FINALLY! New MacBook Pros Released!!

I've been waiting for the updated MBP's to come out and today they did!

I pulled the trigger on the 15" 2.66ghz, 500gb HD, 4gb ram, hi-res display. I'm not giddy, but now I can ebay my 2yrs old MBP!

Nothing like a Mac! Yes, I'm one of those!!! LOL


Anyone else out there going for it?

Re: FINALLY! New MacBook Pros Released!!

the 8-9 hour battery life on the 17" is impressive, but unfortunately the same consideration that has kept me bound to windows since MS release the hunk of trash named vista... Money Money Money.

So... nope, won't be going there anytime soon...but someday I hope.

Bro. A, you just need to sell a few items on ebay and go for it. You know what they say, "Once you go Mac, you won't turn back!" to Windows that it!!!

It is more of a possibility now that I have learned about Adobe's crossgrade policy. Have to jump through some hoops but they only charge the standard upgrade fee instead of the whole license cost.

I know my way around Mac OS pretty good. I prefer it over windows.

I need to talk to my church about buying one, the old White Macbook Hard Drive is completely full. So we need to upgrade it, plus the graphics and video capability needs an upgrade to.

Re: FINALLY! New MacBook Pros Released!!

I have been a Mac-whacker since the mid 80's with the old 518, 8 meg ram, one internal single side floppy disk plus one external plug-in floppy and a whopping 45 meg external hard drive. As I recall, the screen was about 7 to 8 inches.

I still have and use a four year old 15 in PowerBook G4, but, when this one dies, I doubt I'll every own a another Mac. Reason is simple, I can no longer afford them. So, I have started making the transition to Windows with two IBM/HP clone creations, sharing a 19 in Dell display.
