I think that the chances the new MBPs with come with blu ray is slim. Apple SHOULD be including blu ray drives with their computers and they COULD (with some exception) but I think they won't; and sadly the reason not technological, it's business. There are some articles out there about Apple's deals with NBC and media corporation's fears of blu ray piracy. I think it's more likely that the MBPs with come with the quad core processor that is currently replacing the intel core 2 duo in laptops
hey my mom just went to the apple store and asked if theres gonna be new mac products coming out in the next mounth or so and the dude said all the stuff on the interenet is rumors and theres not gonna be new mac products coming out for awhile. im bummmmmed ):
I think in the apple event on tuesday apple is just gonna update the ipods and not redisign any of the laptops, the sepetember event is usually just for the ipods, maybe macworld and when we'll see these changes for the macbook and macbook pro
btw, since my imac that I received today is my first mac, I was just wondering if mac have the most popular engineering and math softwares. Does anyone know? (future engineer here)
If they decrease the price of the macbook under 1K and if I can sell my old laptop, I might get the lowest end model. I just got an iMac, but I also need ocassional portability like I will need to use laptop in my tests for a course this semester, which I just found out today.
As always mate excellent video. I think you are pretty much on the nose with your predictions for up and coming Apple products. I hope you are right cause I would love to see all of those features hit the stores.
The audio level of your videos are getting really low. May I suggest you crank up the volume of your microphone so that you're more audible? Thanks...
well the format wars over, I agree with you but it would be a great thing too do, considering that their are millions of ppl who still haven't converted from dvd....i mean blu-ray hasnt even been famous with the normal players, when the ps3 came out thats when ppl actually started too notice it and if it comes out in mac then a lot more people will transfer to mac so it may be in apples game plan
I'm waiting until three weeks from now, and then I am deciding between a macbook pro and macbook. My little brother needs a newer computer, and he's getting my old MBP.
Great video John, I pretty much agree with everything you say. I'm not sure about a size change on the Classic, but who knows. I also heard about a Nike App for iPhones/iPod Touches that would work like the one for the iPod Nano...
I think you're somewhat right about most of this stuff. Small, incremental updates for the most part in terms of spec, with an update to the cases on the standard Macbooks.
iPod is where it's at this year. We already know what Kevin Rose said about the nano, but the classic is crying out for an update, which would be along the lines of Wifi, increased capacity and design overhaul (more focus on the screen then the clickwheel).
The current designs for the casing of the Power Mac G5/Mac Pro Desktop as well as the ACD have both been around for just over half a decade, they probably going to change that if not this year then the year after.
If the price of macbook goes down to $999 (with educational discount I'm guessing that will be around $899)and if I can sell my old Dell laptop in good price, I might just get one. My iMac is almost at my door, so I don't care about power, but I dunno if I'm ready to give up my portability and Macbook is pretty light to take it everywhere.
Nice video Jon! I would have to agree with you on many points. I've heard many of rumors of new "Zune like" iPod Nanos, As for the new laptops, I'm looking forward to the new designs and hardware upgrades.
if the prices and sizes of the touch dont drop soon, its on YOUR head... lol j/k im holding out on the touch until a drop but im really thinkin about getting a refurb one
yeah im excited to see what they bring. My MacBook 2.4GHZ is awesome and i've had it for like 5-6 months now and its amazing. Don't plan on getting anything else soon buuut my dad might so we'll see :D
i just got a macbook in may. If they increase the hardrive space and lower the price drop on the macbook air I might get one for college and use my macbook as a desktop computer. If they don't ill probably pick up an imac.
I actually just picked up a 20" iMac yesterday, after realizing that I really don't need the portability of the MacBook Pro I was waiting to buy... it'd still be nice to see some spec/design revisions, but I couldn't be happier with my iMac, so it should hold me over just fine until I need the power+portability of the MBP.
im still getting the macbook pro @ 2.6 for the processor...but i will change my mind if they upgrade it to like 2.8 or something...but hey i really dont need blue ray...unless i get a ps3 but even then its always better to watch movies at home but hey thats my 2 cents
Sell it on eBay before the new ones are released. When the new ones release the price of the older models will be significantly lower. In your case even more lower because you will be selling it used.
I think I might do that...My only worry is deleting all of my info off of this laptop. I hear stories of people who sell their computers and then having people who buy them find all of their private info on it even after it's "deleted" and doing whatever they please with it.
thats cool but i think the nano will not sell because it looks a little stupid apple should stay with what they have with the nano but macbook lines that would be cool to see.
I was going to do one of these, except it would be what I thought... not what I've heard about the rumors and stuff... i havent watched all of it yet so yeah... :P
