No complaints here today - I love it all. All of it. I drink the drink today!
Bring on Steve!
Start your complaining engine TechStud! New MacBooks with a non-replaceable battery! Lasts 7 hours, but I am sure that won't be long enough for you. LOL. No ExpressCard slot on the 15" anymore. They replaced it with an SD slot instead.
10:14 PT - DM: Standard configs: $1199 2.26GHz Core 2 Duo, 2GB of memory, 9400M graphics, 160GB hard drive, SD card slot; $1499, 2.53GHz, 4GB memory, 250GB hard drive. And it's available today. And that completes the MacBook Pro family. Most affordable lineup ever.
10:13 PT - DM: 13-inch can also take up to 8GB; up to 500GB of storage, or 256GB SSD. The built-in backlit LED keyboard is standard as well. And it's got FireWire 800 port. MacBook Pro deserves it. So the 13-inch is bumped up to "MacBook Pro" and it starts at just $1199. Less expensive than the 13-inch aluminum MacBook it replaces.
10:11 PT - DM: And then there's the 13-inch unibody design. Updated, with the same built-in battery. It gets up to 7 hours of battery life. 2 hours longer than before, 40% more battery life, same dimensions. It has the new 60% greater color gamut display. And it has the SD card slot as well. Challenge to fit (looks like there may be no audio input?). At what point isn't this a MacBook Pro? What can we add to make it a MacBook Pro?
So does the MacBook no longer exist??? Is it now called the MacBook Pro 13, 15, and 17? The MacBook Air finally got a realistic price drop.

Wow , refurbs are going to be cheap cheap..
What is SD? Can you use eSATA with SD?
FIREWIRE BACK, told you it was NOT SPACE, of course, they probably dropped the gpu down. Oh well, good for audio.
10:46 Snow Leopard will be available for all Intel Macs -- past and present. How should it be priced? Leopard was $129 and they want all Leopard users to upgrade to Snow Leopard. Snow Leopard will be $29 for those users.

It's in english.
The chat over there is filled with trolls and ms fan boys.

There's no such thing as MS fanboys. Just users desperately trying to justify lousy products from a mediocre company.

I'm liking the specs and price on the low end MBP.

Can someone tell me what's happening? I can't get the live page to work (I'm on a crappy PC).
Go to MacRumors Live.
By everyone, of course you mean Techdud?
Don't forget his aliases/bed-buddies ItalianKid and Seahawk Fan. They're cranking up their whining generators as we speak.

Basically, it's less expensive, better specs, and it has an SD slot.
And there is still a MacBook - the white one.

SD = Secure digital as in little meory card in cameras & cell phones.
EDIT: it's going again.
