I want a new laptop, and I want to buy a Mac (as a lifelong PC user, it pains me to say that), so I am hoping that sometime soon new Macbook's or MBP's show up that meet what I want. As it stands, I hesitate only because every Apple product I have purchased from my first iPod, my iPhone, and my sisters iPod Nano have been replaced within three months of purchase (the iPhone stings the most as Apple vehemently denied rumors of an upcoming 3G model).

Rumors and hearsay keep me from buying a laptop right now, but I hope they release an update, or at least some solid news soon so I can have an idea as to when I can safely make a purchase.

Honestly, the biggest thing keeping me from buying an Apple right now is... well, Apple. ]]>Sep 25th 2008 4:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/25/new-mac-placeholders-appear-in-future-shop-stock-system/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/25/new-mac-placeholders-appear-in-future-shop-stock-system/Sep 25th 2008 6:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/25/new-mac-placeholders-appear-in-future-shop-stock-system/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/25/new-mac-placeholders-appear-in-future-shop-stock-system/
No, of course not. You guys really have gotta get over your iFanboydom.]]>Sep 25th 2008 4:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/25/new-mac-placeholders-appear-in-future-shop-stock-system/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/25/new-mac-placeholders-appear-in-future-shop-stock-system/
And you know why?

Because people seem to care more, witch inturn leads to more page clicks and then more add revinue.
And yes, people do care about this non news.
Even You even cared enough to comment on the article, though you don't care about what they are saying, you think it's a waste of reasources or not fair to be posting sooo much on one company.

So, if you don't want them to post this much apple stuff:

stop clicking on the article and expessing your disslike for posts on apple... because that's working against your cause.

Instead:

Click, comment, and follow the advertisement links on storries that you like. And that is a win win for every one.

you don't see many "ifanboys" bitchng and whining on every other post do you?

"oh no not another story about a nokia" etc

the apple stuff here is probobly the most read and like it or not it is actually news, and there are many interested in it, like you for clicking on it, which i am sure wil add up the hits for articles related to apple, which in turn tells the nic people at engadget that this is the stuff we want to read.

you only get this prissy bitching in apple stories, i wonder why so many of you read them in the first place.

or is it because you are 14? and want sex really badly.]]>Sep 25th 2008 8:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/25/new-mac-placeholders-appear-in-future-shop-stock-system/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/25/new-mac-placeholders-appear-in-future-shop-stock-system/

It would be an excellent strategy for them to crest their current popularity.]]>Sep 25th 2008 10:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/25/new-mac-placeholders-appear-in-future-shop-stock-system/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/25/new-mac-placeholders-appear-in-future-shop-stock-system/Sep 25th 2008 12:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/25/new-mac-placeholders-appear-in-future-shop-stock-system/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/25/new-mac-placeholders-appear-in-future-shop-stock-system/
The real message behind netbooks is that a very low cost notebook can be created that is good enough for most people's uses. While the high end will always exist, Apple already enjoys the taste of the low cost volume market. My believe is they wanted mobile.me to be their self-support community, though they appear to be blowing that. But they are for sure going to create a low cost, good quality netbook at some point or another - I doubt they are going to wait the X years until the iphone and macbooks meet in the middle of form factor and functionality. Even though I'm not really an Apple guy (I had a Macbook Pro for a year but though it was too bulky and glossy), I hope they do this.. furthermore, I hope it has a touch screen and slate features.
