I guess AI missed Intel's clarification on the supposed 8 week delay: http://news.cnet.com/8301-13924_3-57...ge-chip-delay/ My $0.02 on the size debate: I went from a 17" MBP to the 13" (with cinema display) and that setup makes much more sens…

Anyone else find it goofy that the Thunderbolt port isn't next to the MagSafe on these new models? The "ultimate docking station" looks kind of silly with wires coming out of both sides of the machine. Would look much cleaner if those ports had swap…

I really don't understand Apple's indifference to FLAC. It's the most popular, stable, open, lossless format available for purchase online. Yet it is about the farthest away you can get from "just working" in iTunes or any iDevice. As to the 24-b…
