[macluvr6]

R there gonna be any other changes other then the processor?

[StrengthTab]

@macluvr6 yes it's gonna be more powerful, or better in other words. definitely worth the wait

[StrengthTab]

@macluvr6 oops sorry, didn't read your question carefully 0.0

other than the processor, there may be the new 3.0 usb added, not sure though

[stephos21]

pls god let it be this week coz my sister is in usa for only one week and now its my only chance to buy it cheaper than any other country,i hope to update them this week....

[IneedTodisco]

@stephos21 haha i need it this week too.

[JoshKnightmare]

Will they update the iMacs from March - May? If so... what do you think th updates are? I'm dying for the new one. :D

[IAmGoombaSniper]

Well the iMac often gets two updates in one year so I won't be surprised if a new iMac comes with the new Macbook Pro.

[thecreativewebshow]

i really want to get a new macbook pro.. ive been waiting forever!! thanks so much for keeping me updated on the MBPS, and please make more videos too keep us updated further!! thank you soo much!!

[SirPingo]

Patiently waiting for the Macbook pro to be updated..

[TheLonelyHappyMeal]

@SirPingo same for me the waitings killin me

[jamaic1aboy2]

Hi Lack it's goog to see a bit of single mindedness here in youtube land you are bang on. I was going to purchase the ipad but i also want a imac 21.5 i was also thinking about macbook pro. I think i will wait for theses updates to come along. Nice one Lack . Great video.

[peavoyj]

This computer is on it's death bed, I'm for the mbp, need to change soon. I'll go pc if it goes past feb

[taylor1038]

wow i thought that ding was my macs mail at first

[kr1spykr3m3]

I've been reading a lot of rumors lately that are having the date of JUNE 2010 as the release date for the MBP with i5 cores. It's beginning to freak me out....i hope it's not true cause thats way too far away.

[2high2aim]

@kr1spykr3m3 Dude I been reading Febuary, I need a new laptop and dont wanna buy a dual core MBP and then an i5 comes out. what r ur sources? plz dolink?

[TeddyLeroux]

What do you guys think about the GPU in the next macbook pro??? You think Apple will go to ati like they did on the iMac's

[JohnShandFilms]

html 5 is bullshit, why? its going to be better more stable than flash. i thought your a mac user?

[has307]

I read some where that they might release the new MBP on 9th I'm not sure about it, but I hope so. I need to buy one soon:)

[IAmGoombaSniper]

I am NOT buying my new mac until the updated macbook pro comes.

[lexus12]

im doing the same, and i need a computer like now!! i hate waiting for apple... lol

[Pokemongo1]

ughh i need a computer too! :(

i would be much more calm and not anxious if apple simple said 'our next conference thing will be on this date'.

then, i could get my schoolwork and assignments done instead of procrastinating, looking up all the rumours of the next MBP range...

gah! :(

[TeddyLeroux]

hey dave... i want to get a low end $1699 15 inch macbook pro... will we see arrandale i5 in that machine??? thanks

[Baal1985]

I am not Dave (perhaps unnecessary info) but I have heard some people say the icore3 will only be seen in the low end mbp 13, and then use icore 5 for the rest and likely icore7 for the high end 15 and 17. I do hope they'll use icore5 in the low end 13 too. But I dont think everybody really knows.

[thecreativewebshow]

would they use the i5's in the high end MBP 13.3"?

[blueacquisitions]

Another great video Dave, good job. I need a laptop real bad for school (had to borrow one!) and have saved enough for the 15". I prey they release the updates soon! Keep us posted Dave, I keep checking every day.

[iharrison30]

Another awesome video, always making sure we are well informed, you are the man Dave. You are always one of the first people I look for when I log into Youtube. I must say I am surprised Steve Jobs actually said that about Flash to a reporter or interviewer. No surprise that he thinks it, but he is normally quite diplomatic and quite. As far was camera and skype are even if there was a camera nobody would be able to supply the data plan etc for video calls on a mobile device so no point really.

[TheBrokenEclipse]

God i wish they would remake the whole MBA, make it look like the others, with the glass screen, glass trackpad, maybe thinner - as it has become "thick".

i Also hope they would add another port hinge on the other side, maybe with usb port and some more basic ports...

But they really need to slash down the price, thats what i hope they do most with the MBA!

[Heoudy]

Nope, I didn't buy it direct from apple, i got it from a wholesaler. I get 2 years free warranty and a full money back guarantee for 3 months, and i got it cheaper... WIN WIN WIN :P

[Heoudy]

Just got my MacBook Pro on thursday! :( Oh knows, I have a 3 month take back time though, no questions ask's so should I take it back guys?

[LACK78]

Actually you only have the first 2 weeks in which to return the macbook pro under the "remorse period" policy. I believe you are referring to your 3 months of phone support.

[TOMD920666]

those macbook pros i finally get the money together and now ive got to wait for an update apple better hurry up. Didnt they release there 2008 model in february? i downloaded the vid with a firefox add on as it still wont work

[groMMit1981]

ipad+no flash = no flash games + no flash apps = more game and app sales from the appstore

but he does have a point, majority of problems i've had browing the web and browser crashes have been down to adobe

Adobes software is shocking!

[mannypeligroso]

Look, you guys need to stop whining that the ipad lacks flash.Its a cpu hog and thats why apple left it out.Take a look at chris pirillos view on it and then talk.I know you can't use flash via safari, but you can still use it via apps on the ipad.Its permitted by apple because those flash based apps will use open GL so its less of a burden on the cpu.Websites like Hulu will come up with their own hulu app rather than going through safari.Similar to the YouTube app on the iPhone.

[mannypeligroso]

I don't see what the fuss is all about that apple computers don't have an HDMI port.If you guys really need it monoprice sells an HDMI to mini display port adapter on their online store.

[Aidanbrooks321]

Dam i just bought my macbook pro 15inch on sunday! do you think i will be able to swap it for the new ones when they come out? :(

[icoopers]

If you do not need it and or absolutely depend on it right now, take it back right way before your 20 days return policy ends and wait for the new ones to arrive and that should be pretty soon.

You wont regret it. I'm waiting as well.

Is just not a good buy if there's an speed increase expected soon. You'll get more for your money and you'll bee happier because you'll up to date!

[Aidanbrooks321]

Oh ok but what if i have installed stuff onto it, and take it back what will they say? I am really anoyed now! :(

[dimwitpinkbigbiblob]

stop looking at the camera... gets freaky when ur just talking and not showing anything =|

[CaptainPinguGuy]

it's ridiculous the iPad doesn't support flash, as nearly everything on the internet uses it! And the LCD screen is nowhere near as good for eBooks as the e-ink system. So that's 2 of the main features ruled out. Oh and the lack of an i-sight camera. iChat or Skype would be brilliant on it. Let's just hope their will be a much updated version of the iPad in the future.

[mattacrazy]

I am struggling to not go and buy a 13'' MBP. But if I find I lose out on stuff like Core i5 (and in a perfect world) usb 3.0 + Blu-Ray

[iDiggMGL]

WOW that's one tall order! USB 3.0- not gonna happen, Apple likes there own proprietary inports like display ports and fire wire thats why they'll definitely lag it on USB 3.0, and that's if the even include it. Blu ray-Take sales over apples HD movie market. The best I can see happening is Apple raising the standard for their HD movies from 720p to 1080p

[mattacrazy]

yes I know I'm well and truly in dreamland. Sigh.

[iDiggMGL]

Ya well to really enjoy Apple stuff you gotta buy into all of their proprietary stuff you know. Thats why some people hate Apple

[ThinkingTechnology]

iPad is for the internet and eBooks. It doesent have flash so not good for the internet and e-Ink is MUUCCCHHH better for reading compared to an LCD screen.

[jgisthebest13]

wat are u videoing with???

[mattacrazy]

I think its just his imac webcam (built in)

[jgisthebest13]

i mean like what program

[Reubenjbordo]

iMovie

[jgisthebest13]

thanks

[TheMoyWilliams]

I just got a Macbook yesterday! Hopefully no updates for that anytime soon.... right? D:

[thed1776]

i sugest returning it and waiting another week or two as theres 99% chance they renew this month with much better speed and graphics.

[TheMoyWilliams]

I thought they were only upgrading the Macbook Pros?

[thed1776]

macbook pro and the macbook air will both be updated soon. most likely at the same time, like they did last year.

[dajopas]

Stop reminding me about the MacBook Pros >:l

[IWentInsane]

god dam it I hope they bring out the new macbook pros sooon arrrgg!!!

[nabatron21]

i have a mac myself and think steve jobbs is a tool and loves macs so much that he bashes everythin else!

[cspek]

i really do hope MBP's are released in February. Been waitin' a few months!

[GigabitGerm]

Nothing about the Mac Pro update rumors? Has that rumor died?

[likethepear]

:O

LANGUAGE!!!

[cpg1o1]

yeah, the i pad is a complete fail. no up to expectations at all.

[mannypeligroso]

Obviously, you need to get your facts right before making stuff up.Steve jobs did not say he doesn't give a rats ass about flash.He said flash is very buggy and causes Macs to crash.Its indeed true.For, example playing a YouTube video on my Mac with flash drains the cpu usage and causes the fans to spin.I think apple is smart for that reason not to release it on the ipad.

[Byakine]

I have a imac 27 inch whit i7 cpu and i never have a problem.

[johnmonk66]

flash eats power, it is a bad video plug in for portable units, why dt people tell companies to stop using flash instead of blaming apple.

[GamerandSuch]

It'd be a hard transition, and for most people, blaming Apple is easier.

[4335433543354335]

great videos

Five stars!

[Ventghost]

i returned my macbook pro in november cause i saw ur rumor video. When i looked at on paper, waiting till february wouldn't be that long. but now its the end of january and its felt like years lol. what do u mean by void calls on the ipad?

thanks for making your tech videos, they really help me

[johnmonk66]

@Ventghost  skype and vonage will work on ipad

[Ventghost]

oh ok thx

[Nnemicvids]

Why don't u just buy a Mini display port to HDMI adapter if u want HDMI..? easy fix dude

[RenegadeMaster07]

you're missing the point.

[Nnemicvids]

and the point is?

[RenegadeMaster07]

the point is you shouldnt have to pay £10-15 for an adapter for every display when on other computers you can have 2 or 3 connections as standard.

As he said, apple pretending they invented everything by trying to do everything a little differently. it is also irritating to need to buy 3 adapters so u can use any display you may come accross. The fact that it doesn't come with a normal sized displayport adapter is bad enough, so u cant even plug straight into display port.

[melmelcorvette]

i cant find mini dis to hdmi i want one lol i you know were i can get one please tell

[Nnemicvids]

well i cant tell u were u can buy one cause I dont know where u live but I am using the "Dr. Bott Mini DisplayPort till HDMI-adapter" on my MBP 13 inch and it works just fine, hope this helps.

[cusinndzl]

Nice video.

[idrummerboy13]

have the same model as you and its fine i love it its connected to a 20inch monitor and works great!

[xXgiigXx]

but i want a macbook now !!!!!

[npfalcon30]

great vid! i def looked at my iphone when i heard the ping lol

[macprorocks]

Great Video 5 stars! I can't wait for a new MacBook Pro

[ThatAppleGuy]

i really hope they update the apple cinema display 30 inch to led

[DRBUK]

it will be the ULTIMATE WEB EXPERIENCE once HTML5 comes through !

[KrypticPulse]

if they do update, It would be great within the next 10 days haha.... yea I did buy a new MBP a few days ago...

[krizem]

Macbook pro's better keep the same price tag and not come with a crappy gpu, who cares if it's i5 if it would ship with inferior gfx..... the dual gpu option in the 15inch and above. I hope they keep similar spec if not better if they goto onboard only stuff no dedicated gpu or vid memory,id buy last years model

[eannamc]

Hold out for buying a MBP. I didn't and the day I got my MBP they updated the specs. Was really pissed off. Still love the laptop tho.

[ConnorCrosbyPrdctns]

I was hoping that they were going to update the macbook pros in January. I was waiting til the 27th to buy one, but since you said that they might be updating, I will wait.

[EverythingISTech]

i did w8 but then I bought it.... its not gunna b a HUGE difference to buy a macbook pro

[ConnorCrosbyPrdctns]

true, but I would like to have the latest and greatest, lol.

[YourAppleKid]

i just ordered my mac

[DRBUK]

rumoured updates for the laptops are feb/march

[YourAppleKid]

what do you think about Mac Mini's ?

[geniousmac]

in my personal opinion i hate flash, even though we have to use it but it crashes my mac all the time.

[Appleloverism]

i just did buy the mbp tooo, but i dont need the new update

[McgregorKLB]

Macbook pro will update in March, mark my words!! first the "hype" of the iPad, then in March the "hype" of the new MPB.. thanks anyway! and yes i want HTML5 over Flash.. even though i don't have problems playing it anywhere.. HTML5 is optimized and i love that!

[MasaruGamer]

oh gawd already

I WANT PEACE OF MIND APPLE and I want you to get Adobe to wake up and maybe distance yourself from Intel.

[romodrummerjz]

apple shoulda put a Snow Leopard OS on the "iPad" no one want the iphone OS! who needs the iPhone OS if they already own iPod Touches or iphones!!??!!

[surferstapleton]

@romodrummerjz OSX should be on a netbook.

[romodrummerjz]

thats what i meant, apple should have come out with a netbook not the ipad... its essentially just an ipod touch with a 9 inch screen and a 3g connection ohh my big deal and who cares

[johnmonk66]

@romodrummerjz we all care because the netbook would have cost 1500, oh wait they have a netbook, they call it a macbook air

[thed1776]

they have a netbook aka. the macbook air. the ipad is a tablet computer so now they sell all in one imac desktops mac pro,mac min notebook macbook / pro netbook macbook air. and tablets the ipad.

[GSD4U]

yes!! dave the mac is back!!

[MilexProductions]

I just bought a MacBook Pro! FUCK!

[aaronjohn10]

@MilexProductions u couldn't just wait for the new one don't ya?

[MilexProductions]

i didn't know there would be an update :'(

[pgsxx88]

lol, 14 day returns?

[MilexProductions]

rofl

"Hi I'd like to return my MacBook Pro."

"OK."

"Oh yes! I would also now like to buy the new MacBook Pro."

here's no point mine's fine :L

[pgsxx88]

If its released say with 14 days of you buying it a lot of people have got apple to do a straight swap, orrrrrr you return it now..........and wait for it cus this is the main event........you exercise patience and wait until the end of the month.!!!!!!!OMG

[BourneLegend]

I wish i had the macbook pro but i only got the new macbook

[YUPnNOPE]

hopefully the internet will move to html5 and we won't have to worry about the whole flash thing anymore... cuz other than that and the lack of camera, i'm REALLY excited about the iPad!

[lildmoneymusic]

i love how apple controls thrir platform/products.. but i wanna see a price drop cause the next level for apple would be the macbook being atleast 600 lol...fo shizzle

[TechGeekProductions]

Great video Dave!

[daluifh331]

Dave it's true about the 27' iMac my school ordered 10 of them and all of them had to be sent back.

[BourneLegend]
