Hey Everyone
Looking at getting a macbook soonish. It seems to tick all the boxes of what i want (fast processor, small and light(ish), built in webcam, large amount of RAM, draft-n wireless, largeish HDD, easily dual booted with windows) but even with a student discount and, by my research, seems to give other laptops of a similar spec a run for their money (only with small screens, i'm awear that i can get a spec as good as that, if not better, in a 15.4" screen), it still seems just a bit expensive.
I'm currently working with a Mac pro at work and love how quickly mac os boots and shuts down, big plus for me.
however, acording to wikipedia, "A fully redesigned Macbook with an aluminum shell similar to the MacBook Pro is expected to be released along with an updated line of iPods at an Apple event sometime in mid-September 2008."

Does anyone know anything about Apple product history, is it likely the current macbooks will come down in price?

Cheers,
Ritchie
 
i know that the macbook pros have down in price because 2 of my friends bought them. They are very good and yes i like the boot up time.

I'm going to get a macbook pro, but i'm not sure about this new thing. I know that apple are coming with tablet mac.
 
imo the macbook pro's are too big for what im looking for. just trying to find a small and portable laptop that ticks all my boxes, macbook is the only one i can find for a resonable(ish) price. theres a massive discount for students but if they're is going to be more discount in 2/3 weeks time ill wait.
i can only assume there would be a bit of a drop if these new models are going to be added to the current macbooks on the market, as for if these new models are replacing the current ones then i can see a rise in price.

tricky bussiness, i dont want to pay anymore than they currenly are! :eek:
 
I had read that the mac book will drop in price up to 30% and that in September Apple will release more info about it cause of some conference they will be holding.
 
anyone else with any mid-september new macbook news?
had a look online and there doesnt seem to be much info about them yet, but does anyone have any sneeky goss relating to this?
