I am going in to the apple store because my laptop died for the third time in two months and I'm gonna demand a new one, should I wait for the announcement haha

dude looks like he got dressed from the washing basket.

jed_, Monday, 11 June 2012 17:14 (eleven years ago) link

a washing basket in the mid 90s.

So if iOS 6 is announced today, how long before it's released?

retina =-0

Bloody hell, this is like when the PB G4 came out. Gotta have.

stet, Monday, 11 June 2012 17:39 (eleven years ago) link

over under on how much more expensive this is than a regular Mbp? I say 500

un® (dayo), Monday, 11 June 2012 17:41 (eleven years ago) link

2200

un® (dayo), Monday, 11 June 2012 17:45 (eleven years ago) link

15" Retina doesn't do anything for me. There are diminishing returns on screen resolution at that point, IMO. My 27" iMac is just right.

Kiarostami bag (milo z), Monday, 11 June 2012 18:04 (eleven years ago) link

Possibly better in some ways -- this is just a better-looking 1440x900 for some apps. Photos and videos are going to look amazing, though.

stet, Monday, 11 June 2012 18:08 (eleven years ago) link

2200 for the 15", is that right?

the late great, Monday, 11 June 2012 18:24 (eleven years ago) link

when does the apple store open

the late great, Monday, 11 June 2012 18:25 (eleven years ago) link

Non-iMessage messaging systems referred to as "legacy messaging applications." Kind of cocky.

Je55e, Monday, 11 June 2012 18:35 (eleven years ago) link

they've finally merged apple IDs and phone numbers. That was the biggest fuck-up with iMessage. Apart from it not delivering

stet, Monday, 11 June 2012 18:35 (eleven years ago) link

longest keynote ever?

jed_, Monday, 11 June 2012 18:50 (eleven years ago) link

fuck you no imac.

jed_, Monday, 11 June 2012 18:54 (eleven years ago) link

hoping for the post-keynote quiet upgrade to Mac Pro they did a few years back

stet, Monday, 11 June 2012 18:56 (eleven years ago) link

fuck you no imac.

Nhex, Monday, 11 June 2012 18:58 (eleven years ago) link

Mac Pro proc bump also confirmed by the verge.

I kinda want that new MBP. Lusting commences.

I am glad that the macbook pro is pricier, as I am doing a lot of other sorts of expenditures and am trying not to spend all kinds of cash right now. I will resist the purchase, this way.

Seriously, thin as hell, a pound lighter than the previous one... golly

Hmm, no MacMini refresh (yet) and iOS6 runs on 3GS? I may be spending far less money this year than I thought.

Ned Raggett, Monday, 11 June 2012 19:42 (eleven years ago) link

fuck you no imac.

srsly. need a new desktop, been holding off for new imac announcement.

what's the deal with the new airport?

the late great, Monday, 11 June 2012 19:46 (eleven years ago) link

also why can you not add a bigger ssd to the cheaper macbook pro, that sounds like BS

the late great, Monday, 11 June 2012 19:49 (eleven years ago) link

did the previous airport express not have dual-band? I think just the extreme did.

mh, Monday, 11 June 2012 19:58 (eleven years ago) link

Just bought the highest-end 15" without the retina display. My old first-gen MacBook (32-bit) is horrible at this point.

schwantz, Monday, 11 June 2012 20:22 (eleven years ago) link

The Retina would be nice with a monitor to replace my iMac - but I'm not that excited by 256MB of onboard storage. Would have to run TBolt drives all the time at home for iTunes and my Lightroom archive, then not have them when I'm not at home.

I guess this could push me to go all-cloud with Spotify/Pandora but that option does not excite me.

Kiarostami bag (milo z), Monday, 11 June 2012 20:27 (eleven years ago) link

I still feel all ;_; that my old mac pro that I bought used just over a year ago (and pimped out) will not get snow leopard

I can play Diablo 3 on it, Apple, please take that as a sign it is worth supporting

mh, Monday, 11 June 2012 20:41 (eleven years ago) link

feel like the jump from MBP display -> MBP retina display will feel like jump from ipad 2 -> ipad 3, i.e. not all that stunning

un® (dayo), Monday, 11 June 2012 22:53 (eleven years ago) link

YOU'RE not all that stunning

brony ver (s1ocki), Monday, 11 June 2012 22:59 (eleven years ago) link

Was having some last-minute angst about the lack of a matte screen option on the MBP Retina, but then I realized whenever I used my GF's new MBA the glossy didn't bother me too much.

Pulled trigger on maxed-out MBP Retina. At least I can take in the screen while I eat ramen for the next year to pay for this thing.

Elvis Telecom, Monday, 11 June 2012 22:59 (eleven years ago) link

whoa

brony ver (s1ocki), Monday, 11 June 2012 23:00 (eleven years ago) link

dont forget applecare

un® (dayo), Monday, 11 June 2012 23:15 (eleven years ago) link

iPad 2 > 3 jump is pretty stunning for me. Text is infinitely improved. Not sure that's a big deal on a MBP screen tho.
Most photos online being 1024 on the long side @ 72dpi limits Retina usefulness, IMO.

Kiarostami bag (milo z), Monday, 11 June 2012 23:15 (eleven years ago) link

I'm sure stet can cook up a retina.css stylesheet for ILX

un® (dayo), Monday, 11 June 2012 23:22 (eleven years ago) link

ipad 2 -> 3 jump is day and night ffs
