I would like a Mac Pro I've decided. Going to keep the ol macbook pro and do main studio stuff on a Mac Pro Hexcore!

Apples are great computers if their platform is to your taste, no argument there.

What I really admire Apple for is the way their users are compelled to do their shilling and public relations for this huge rich multinational, and they do it all for free. Some of you dudes are a short step away from spruiking outside an Apple store dressed up as an iPhone.

HOO LA LA LA!! Optimus prime whatever in the new MacBook Pros! HOO LA LA LA!!! New NVIDIA thing make go faster MacBook Pro!!! HOO LA LA LA! HOO LA LA LA! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4sIXDKMh_gk HOO LA LA LA!!! I can feel it coming!!! HOO LA LA LA!!!

agreed.

myself I feel often a bit ashamed when speaking of my mac(s) to PC friends, because I could make a great official dealer, even if I've no commercial talent

perhaps do apple use a kind of pheromone in their machines, to make users addict and preachers!

but I guess it's just the QUALITY of what they sell that makes them like a business leader / monopole...

the fanbase is growing and growing since years...

I'm not specially waiting for the new mac pros... but always interested.

FACT: same specs PCs already exist, but hey, not macs, so the mac lovers are still waiting!

well, i am not ashamed at all, what is easier and more natural then speaking highly of something that through and trough satisfies you?
and naturally you do that for free.

I could even PAY for speaking of how much I love my mac(s)

allways great pleasure.

thanks Apple.

(remember me discovering video games on an apple IIe with orange display, Lode runner, Conan the Barbarian, Choplifter, Zaxxon...)

HOO LA LA LA!! Shit.. I'm really kind of worried about this actually... HOO LA LA LA!!! All the talk is about big goofy iPhones without a phone... HOO LA LA LA !!! ...and iLife 10? Dude. So what!?!? HOO LA LA LA!!! PLEASE NEW MACBOOK PRO with Optimus graphic chip set thing for quad i7 processors!!!!!! HOO LA LA LA!!!!

A tablet would be neat and all, but i don't have any interest in owning one myself.

I also am hoping that a new Macbook Pro is announced. I'm still using a Powerbook. It has really held up over the years. It has been able to handle what ever i throw at it and perform well. Untill I upgraded to live8 suite and suddenly the old Powerbook started to really show it's age. I'll be sad to let it go, but it's time to retire my PB15.

Bring on the Macboook Pro Quad Core!!! Hoo La La La!!!

wait.. so no quad macbook yet.. is that it for announcements and just the iPad or are they announcing it one at a time and just teasing the crap out of everyone.. is this a whole day thing?

^ Seriously---I'm wondering just the same?! The iPad is dope & all, however It really doesn't peak my interest...HOWEVER----A new line of quad-core Pro's is in my interest...Looking to make a laptop upgrade soon & this would sure bring a spark o' joy

I think this will be one of those situations where they will just appear on the site without any big news conference or fanfare.

...and hopefully the quadcore MacBook Pros will be added to the Apple store later this week.

While I think the iPad is decent for what it is, I'm more intrigued by the announcement that Apple is manufacturing their own processors for the thing. They've got a 1 GHz processor built to their specifications to work hand-in-hand with their hardware and software. I wonder how far off they are from producing processors for their laptops... or if that is even in the cards? It was big news when Apple announced that they would be using Intel processors. One would think that another processor manufacturer change would be bad news. Unless their processors are just for their mobile devices.

Hmmm.

Welp, I just have to keep my 2003 dual 1.8 PPC G5 tower for a while longer. I made an entire track on it last weekend. The thing just won't quit!

Well, the lack of announcement re: either new MacbookPros or desktop Pros has pretty much convinced me to get a 27" iMac as my first dip into the water.

I doubt it. If it was going to be that soon I would think it would get at least a "by the way..." annoucement at the conference. But who knows.
