    retail packaging are 56% less volume than MacBook.

    The powerbook I bought 3-4 years ago could do around 4hours.

    Would have to have a full look at the specs/benchmarks.

    I'm in the market for a new notebook.

    Would have been interested in a 10 -12 in screen but 13 is just too big to carry around comfortably

    No, theres the iRandy Newman.... He fits in an even smaller envelope.

    Could just be building drama.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,762 ✭✭✭WizZard


    I'd imagine any MBP updates will be speed bumps and not Keynote worthy. (possibly)
    They don't need a redesign or anything like that - next major update will be when they go quad-core at year end IMHO


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,039 ✭✭✭jpfahy


    stores still down


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,828 ✭✭✭unklerosco


    Could just be building drama.

    Fingers crossed


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,007 ✭✭✭Gerard_Smith


    There had better be more their stock is plumiting again.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,069 ✭✭✭triple h


    Was watching the live update and reading the comments in here at the same time.

    I reckon i have to watch the video footage later on to see what apple tv can do. I got the gist, but i have to see it in action.
