How do you know the MacBook won't be using Core 2? The problem for Apple here is that this isnt the PPC era anymore, they can't cripple their hardware to make the more expensive laptops look better. Many other manfacturers will probably...

If this guy was right... people should only just be starting to get their MacBooks this month. He predicted July.

Yep, would be great to see an iMac update and Mac Mini, However, I can't see where they could go with the iMac at the moment, I think they will wait for the next generation chips - Merom. The core solo Mini needs to go though !!! - 1.6...

WOW.........Mac Mini and iMac both got quite a price drop here in the UK overnight.

How much do you think the core solo chip costs Apple? And as far as i'm aware, was there ever a 1.5ghz solo chip? I thought it was 1.66? And you are correct about the MacBook..... you are, effectively, getting a monitor, a mouse...

Im hoping for a price drop/change in specs too. The core solo Mini is a pretty bad deal I think.
