Oh no. This means the MacBook Pro I got six months ago is complete rubbish. I have to toss it and buy the newest one :o
Not really of course.
Seriously though, I hope this and the capacity bump in the iPad they pushed out last week is a harbinger of things. Ongoing improvements released when they are available rather than waiting for big once a year events.
They slipped in minor updates to other Mac laptop lines last year too. I believe it was a slight processor speed bump, on the 2011 MBP line? So this seems consistent with how Apple is now.
I’m surprised about the price drop, but pleasantly surprised.
The price drop is huge compared to the speed bump. It will allow us to sell and upgrade sooner than planned.
Can I get 200.00 back since I just bought mine less than 3 weeks ago?
there is no cd drive .but all specfication all well good.
