[QUOTE="killerbob, post: 1275055, member: 209727"] My Old trusty 2007 HP 17 inch - by then - high-end notebook is on death row... So to preserve my HUGE pile of documents and software I have converted the entire machine with VMware and now it is running on my wifes MacBook Pro 13in Eventually I want a new 17in Notebook and after having played with my wifes MBP I am totally convinced it will be a Mac But then I saw recommendation on Macrumors.com NOT to buy current MBP's as they are supposed to be "end of life" On the other hand - the only thing I would like to see on the current MBP 17in is a Blu-Ray reader/burner- but I don't even know if Apple will put Blu-Ray on the next generation or not ... I mean they have had plenty of time and opportunity to do this - but have chosen not to -so it is probably political I guess I can "live in exile" on my wifes MBP for a while, so waiting a few months could be an option ... On the other hand I want a new 17 pretty soon So - question is: To MBP NOW or WAIT ? [/QUOTE]
