[QUOTE="Kash, post: 304893, member: 23444"] Lucky for you, Apple's notebook line was upgraded to Core2Duo chips pretty recently (late November, I believe) and Intel doesn't have plans for any significant upgrades to its Core line for several months. The only expected change will be coming right around the same time as Leopard, but it's rumored to be simply a bus speed upgrade, not exactly something that will be double the performance from current chips. If you really want a Mac, just get one now. Any upgrades in the future will only be marginal improvements over what is available right now. The only way you'll feel as though you wasted your money was if Apple decided to jump ship with Intel and go with an entirely new architecture (like how some felt when Intel chips were released a month after their purchase of G5 Macs). Stop worrying so much about what it around the corner and just be happy with you can get now. There will always be something better "just around the corner". [/QUOTE]
