Has anyone heard anything about the potential updates to the MacBook's in November? If so what have you heard about dates becausei 'm looking into getting one before the start of the winter quarter @ school.
ThinkSecret reports that Apple is set to introduce new MacBook updates soon after the release of Mac OS X Leopard (10.5). Leopard is rumored to be launched on October 26th, and the rumor site expects the new MacBooks to be in the hands of consumers "by the first half of November, if not sooner". According to their sources, the MacBook update will be a relatively modest update, and simply bump processor speeds.

According to their sources, the MacBook update will be a relatively modest update, and simply bump processor speeds. It's unknown if the new MacBooks will adopt the Santa Rosa architecture that adopted by the MacBook Pros in June. ThinkSecret also believes this will be the last Apple hardware revision before the holidays.

Oh. My. God. James absolutely obliterated the island tonight. The last time there was so much destruction, Obi Wan Kenobi had to take a seat on the Falcon after the Death Star said "hi and bye" to Leia's homeworld.
I got pics and video. But I will upload them in the morning. I need to smoke this nice phat joint and just close my eyes and replay the amazingness in my head.
If only the Macbooks have al casings and the same keyboard as the MBP. I don't need the dedicated graphics as much as I need a good keyboard to type with.

if they do something like that there is no real reason to keep the macbook line if the only difference is a video card =\ Might as well make that an optional upgrade when you configure it.... but then again, most people are idiots and will buy it because it is a "Pro"
Well I always thought people bought the Pro for the dedicated graphics cards. Seems like that's what the Pro targets: Visual professionals. The nice keyboards and extra ports or Firewire stuff are like, icing on the cake.
I'm gonna the first loser to spring for a MBP 'cos I prefer its keyboard

Man, I'm seriously torn. Leopard is finally upon us, I'm locked and loaded to buy a mac on Friday, and now they pull this. I'm actually leaning towards a MacBook over a MacBook Pro in part because it's smaller and I just really don't need the upgraded graphics -- it's purely a travel computer -- and now there is this rumor of updated MBs coming out if I can just hold out a few days longer.
They will probably get the SR chips finally. Will be a nice upgrade to the systems. I can not wait clean my whole system and install Leopard on Friday. I all ready for my Captain and coke ready. wOOt! wOOt! Let us know if you have any questions T.
lol toasty. hopefully the new MB's come out on friday along with leopard instead of waiting a few weeks like some have said earlier in this thread... who knows.. we will know all on friday.
@ asdf, what is the SR chip and how is it better over my current MB, just curious =p.. i might have to think about selling this one over craigslist and getting a new MB if the update is really better.
