im gunna now talk bout the mac pro: Look its just too expesive. £2,449 for just the basic one! I got a a 4gb, 500gb, quad core, 22inch, windows 7 pc for only £250! Also, with all the best upgrades, it could cost £12000! WHOA! You could buy a brand new car without even using the uks guvvy scrapege scheme. Mac mini: As i said. You could buy a better computer with $599. WHY! If its gunna be greener and saving you money why have at fucking $599?! Thats all. By the way i got a imac a week a go. Its awesome. Althought it costs £1000

OMG!!! I pulled a fast one, called the Apple store and spoke store supervisor told him how it wasn’t right for them to just new MBP bump up to 2.66. Dude said bring back your MBP and will give the newer model with no stocking fee..whaaaat, but your gonna have to wait don’t have it in stock. Them he put on hold for 15min, then he offered me the 17inch mothership.. just pay the difference but only three left…I did like a buck 150 on freeway! I’m a happy owner of new MBP17, Apple won me over again. Dam I forgot about timecapsule SNAP!

@Derek: I believe Mac Mini price is the same.

Return it if you can and get the new one. Nvidia chipset alone, plus new ports, are killer.

Wow, that new design for the Mac Pro case looks awesome. Very clean and makes everything easy to find.

I just bought a Mac Mini two weeks ago. I am still within Amazon’s return policy. Any word on what the price of the new Mini is? If its the same, I am sending mine back.

I wish I could afford an iMac. Surprised it’s only core duo… I was expecting quad.

You're upset with yourself for not waiting until the next product update before buying?

Happened to me a few years ago with the MBP, a month after my work got one, they intro'd the Penryn versions with much higher pixel density. It was after 30 days, so no returns. They could have waited, but their buying cycle was out of sync with Apple's release cycle. Happens a lot in tech products. There will always be better for less soon....
