NEW MBPs are out!

With i5 & i7 CPUs.

Sadly the 13" models still has C2D

Apple - MacBook Pro - Meet the new MacBook Pro family.

Yup. A discussion has been going on about this all morning long.

Arg, I just recently bought my Mac book last month. I wish I would have known they new ones would be out soon.

Seriously, vash, if you missed the rampant rumors circulating all over the internet, you didn't look very hard.

Either way, your C2D machine is still sick. Better than what 95% of computer consumers buy.

Don't feel bad, Apple NEVER releases info about product upgrades until the day of. You should call Apple and see if they'll let you return your MBP for the new one. It happened to me when they released the new iMac three weeks after I bought one, and Apple gave me a full refund.

Good luck.

Well, I am not too surprised. I am not a big Mac person, this was my first Mac ever. I wanted to pick something up because I had planned on going back to school soon and really didn't have a clue except that I liked the specs the 13" had.

Update: I am returning my MacBook Pro tomorrow for the new one. Called and got it approved by the Apple store manager tonight.

Awesome

The new 13 inch isn't that much better, especially if you're not into gaming. The only true upgrade there was HDD space and the 320m.

does anyone know how long you can have a MBP before its too late to swap out for an updated one. I just got one in January, so i was just curious if its too late to trade it out. Has anyone tried this. ??

14 days. Some have reported certain Apple retail stores allowing them to trade in if they've had them a few days longer than that. Depends on the Manager.

I'd say it's safe to say 90 days isn't gonna make the cut. Sorry.

Mods: any chance of maybe merging some of these similar threads? There are two in the Notebooks forums already. Thanks.

oh ****, lol oh well was worth the try, i called the store and all they could tell me was to go in to talk to the manager, that they are only dealing on a case to case basis. Oh well.....
