True that. But either way, you don't want to get caught dropping $1200+ on something that will be deemed outdated in a few weeks...]]>Feb 8th 2010 9:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/current-macbook-pro-sku-given-mark-of-death-in-best-buy-database/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/current-macbook-pro-sku-given-mark-of-death-in-best-buy-database/Feb 8th 2010 10:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/current-macbook-pro-sku-given-mark-of-death-in-best-buy-database/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/current-macbook-pro-sku-given-mark-of-death-in-best-buy-database/
You're fine, the i5 in a laptop is not mind blowing and I doubt Apple will change anything else.

Too late. I spent my 17" MBP savings on different brand. I am satisfied with what I got regardless of whatever Apple might release in the coming months.]]>Feb 8th 2010 11:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/current-macbook-pro-sku-given-mark-of-death-in-best-buy-database/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/current-macbook-pro-sku-given-mark-of-death-in-best-buy-database/Feb 9th 2010 9:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/current-macbook-pro-sku-given-mark-of-death-in-best-buy-database/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/current-macbook-pro-sku-given-mark-of-death-in-best-buy-database/
The sad part is, Apple is pretty good about drying up stock before sending out the new macbooks. So expect to see the old Core 2 Duos for a couple more weeks.

Inventory transitions to "discontinued", then becomes at risk and deleted from planogram. So also expect some best buys to just plain be out of macbooks...]]>Mar 29th 2010 1:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/current-macbook-pro-sku-given-mark-of-death-in-best-buy-database/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/current-macbook-pro-sku-given-mark-of-death-in-best-buy-database/Feb 8th 2010 9:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/current-macbook-pro-sku-given-mark-of-death-in-best-buy-database/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/current-macbook-pro-sku-given-mark-of-death-in-best-buy-database/Feb 8th 2010 9:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/current-macbook-pro-sku-given-mark-of-death-in-best-buy-database/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/08/current-macbook-pro-sku-given-mark-of-death-in-best-buy-database/

Actually, deleted does mean we no longer will carry that particular.

Deleted and discontinued are both bad signs (at least for anyone wanting that, lol.)

Sure, if it were a poorly built PC. However, it's an established fact that Macs hold their value better than PCs do.

you might think 2k is a lot for a laptop, but i had ordered my envy 15, came to 1850 and it had the same specs that most believe these new MBP's will have.

+Optical drive
+OSx (without custom installs)
+7 hour battery without extra "slice"
