Usually Appleinsider has news of reports of limited stock of an item if it's about to be replaced.

I am hoping the new Arrandale MBP's will be cooler than the current C2D's. That would be a feature worth waiting for.

Someone needs to write an OS X emulator to run on this thing.

I think Apple expect developers to make this product great. Apple's own software is so underwhelming.

It's not just the processors. The Macbook Pro's video hardware is really outdated vs. the PC industry. Apple HAS TO KEEP UP WITH PCs if they want to provide the ability to run windows.

Because it would be silly to buy a current C2D when all the other PC boys are running core i5, i7. I need a Mac, but I'm not replacing my 2 year old C2D Dell with another C2D.
