Would love to see an SAS and/or SSD build-to-order drive option.

It's about time for this very welcome addition to the Mac OS canon. Bravo.

As a resident of Tennessee and as a fan of the tremendous creativity that Jobs's work has unleashed around the world, I wish him health, happiness, and a long life. Be well, Steve.

Wikipedia has switched its assessment. For now, the listing for the 2,80 part is T9600. Presumably Apple will switch to the P processor when it runs out of T9600 stock. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacBook_Pro#Models_2

Given Apple's obfuscation, I'm inclined to go with the 3,06 processor. I know that it's more expensive, but at least it'll be slightly faster AND I'll know that I'm purchasing a 35W part from the get-go.

Serious ambiguity. (As of 16 June 2009, the Wikipedia article has now switched to say that the part is the T9600.) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacBook_Pro#Models_2

In advance of Bare Feats doing a comparison between the 2.8GHz and 3.06GHz, does anyone have sense of the benefit of the $300 cpu upgrade? The 3.06GHz runs hotter (35W), which in a laptop can be an issue ...

The "One more thing" may very well be the reappearance of Steve.
