Lots and lots of really cool stuff coming from now through the end of the year. My MAJOR disappointment (though it was rumored so I wasn't too surprised) is that there is no longer a 17" macbook pro. Mine is almost 3 years old and I likely would have purchased a new one by year end <sigh> now I have to make a choice that would mean a smaller screen size but a lot of small but important little tweaks I would like (especially the upgrade to a 750gb SSD for less than I paid for my 256gb one)... Maybe I should visit the eye doctor and see if I can use a stronger reader prescription? Or maybe if I wait there will magically be a 17" er on the apple store by Christmas? Tom

Id be very interested in a MBA 17" with the new Retina display and a 256GB SSD. 15" is fine but not great for editing on as I like to have enough palettee space however it does work.

I see the new Macbook Pro and Macbook Air units have USB3. Looks like Apple have relented on USB3 connection and so there are now multiple fast connectivity interfaces. Very nice.

There is no such item in the Apple Store yet JK, it IS announced but it won't appear in the store until it's released.

I just priced one up out of interest. When I bought my MacBook Pro I up specced the memory to 8Gb which more than doubled the cost, with the other options I chose it came to around $5.5K. This model comes with 8Gb as standard and you can upgrade to 16Gb for not nearly as much as I expected. In fact with all the upgrades I wanted to build a machine that would smoke what I currently have it came to $3.5K. I was tempted, but as what I have is meeting my needs I'm going to wait at least another year (possibly two). They seem to be selling other parts of a system rather than just upgrading the machine, so for example they are pushing NAS systems (thunderbolt driven). That is something I may be interested in as my Acer is quite slow and and pain to use (it takes multiple attempts and quite a while to get the MacBook to see it).
