So when do these things demo in the Apple store so I can fuck around with them?

 

[Previous]

$2199 U-S DOLLARS

 

[Good Job Bob]

 

[grumpy]

2200 USD
WTS kidney. PM me for details.

Apple's are experts at making you think something is super expensive, so when they disclose a $2000 laptop, people think it's a frickin bargain. It's a $2000 laptop!!! Not very many people need a $2000 laptop, even if Apple just made you think that's super cheap for what you're getting.

 

[PhoncipleBone]

I was debating about replacing my 2009 iMac with a MacBook soon. Guess I just got my answer. Will be saving up for that 15" mega MacBook Pro.

 

[Ceebs]

Too rich for my blood. No way I can justify 2 grand for a laptop.

 

[Mobius 1]

You can't upgrade the RAM in this thing, right?

That's the number one way to extend the life of a laptop. If you can't I'm out.

Looks like the RAM is, not the storage, for certain.

 

[kr2t0s]

all these new laptops shipping today...sounds lion Mountain Lion has to come out today

 

[shadyspace]

Mad cheap. I wipe my ass with $2200 bills.

 

[mf.luder]

Hmmm, is a dedicated HDMI port needed? Wouldn't a Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter be enough?

Interested in MagSafe 2.

 

[The Elite]

lolol same.

It's out of my price range, but I can't tell about everyone else's exclamations.

Relieved. It's packed with power for that price.

 

[Enco]

Oh snap Game Center?

 

[Aroo]

I will not buy this until they upgrade the GPU. So Haswell + NVidia/AMD new GPUs retina pro for me next year.

 

[Ambitious]

Will get my first own flat this fall and really should save my money. But.. jesus...

 

[sc0la]

Free os x updates incoming?

 

[Treefingers]

Is that alarm I see... please!

 

[dc89]

UK

You live in the UK too. If so you are like me, you know we will be stung big time.

 

[brotkasten]

Yeah. 600M licenses vs ...?

 

[Levyne]

Good price. I got a similar laptop (only 555m 3gb gpu) for like ~1800 with a plebean 1600x900 screen

You can upgrade the RAM in current Macbook Pros, no idea what the new one's going to be like though.

 

[Good Job Bob]

So when do these things demo in the Apple store so I can fuck around with them?

Probably today or tomorrow, I'll be there tomorrow checking these bad boys out.

 

[BruceLeeRoy]

So uhhh when can I order this thing?

 

[Omiee]

I can not believe this is only 2199, so buying one when its available on the store.

will probably upgrade to 512 gb ssd if its not that expensive.

 

[StrikerObi]

I wonder how many of those 125 million iCloud users even know what iCloud is.

 

[bodyofanamerican]

Siri in Mountain Lion?

Or is that dictation?

 

[LuffyZoro]

Where are you guys watching this the OP says no live streams?

We're all there, aren't you?

[eznark]

That's a really nice computer. I have literally no clue what I would do with a 15" laptop anymore though.

 

[outunderthestars]

Good haha. Yeah I must have missed it. I'm going to have to wait for a summary of what went on before I comment further.

Here is the info

 

[derFeef]

Yeah. 600M licenses vs ...?

Who cares, see the graph? It's much steeper!

 

[JaggedSac]

Yeah. 600M licenses vs ...?

Was about to say the same thing.

 

[bearythebear]

Isn't OS X like 30 bucks or something?

 

[DancingCactus77]

Is Apple phasing out the 17" MBP?

 

[celebi23]

Siri?

 

[Fjolle]

Yeah. 600M licenses vs ...?

26M

 

[Loxley]

Apple just nutted all over the Ultrabook market. Back to the drawing board, chaps!

Exactly what I was thinking.

Insane.

 

[kittens]

Welp, I'm never buying that. Looks pretty, though.

 

[Zutroy]

Assuming the don't rape the currency conversion, and that you can still get a education discount on one, it might just be in my budget.

 

[Joel Was Right]

That's kind of a stupid comparison. Of all things, why would Apple compare userbase to Windows. The % data isn't fooling anyone

 

[vatstep]

$2200 is a very reasonable price for the technology, but too much for me, unfortunately. I need to take up some illegal activities to make some extra cash or something.

 

[Enco]

Proper iCloud!

 

[pxleyes]

um, that's for the small version, which no one will buy.

LOL WUT

I'm buying the low model tomorrow if all goes well.

Let's see a PC OEM come out with a Laptop at that resolution for less than $2000 in the next year.

 

[Reveirg]

No Ethernet/Firewire is a huge bust for anyone in the audio industry. It just can't work.

 

[LCfiner]

Poor Craig.

you can’t follow up that big MBP announcement with Documents in the Cloud.

 

[-COOLIO-]

$2199

What the actual fuck?

yeah seriously, whos going to be the shitty normal pro now.

im actually offended that the price on the new model is so low.

like my feelings are actually hurt.

I might have to start putting off some Lego purchases.

 

[Digishine]

I guess I'll buy it when there a 17inch out. until then I'll buy this one. Please god don't let them announce a new imac. I'm dead else.

 

[ckohler]

Siri?

Probably speech dictation.
