MacBook update, not a new portable
Sorry but why does everyone think Apple will have a totally new "ultra portable" laptop to add to the line up. Seems to me they would just replace the MacBook with such a desirable model and leave the MacBook Pro alone the way it is. After all, they can't possibly reduce the thickness of a MacBook Pro as it's being reported and still keep all the fun bits they like to have on the Pro model. Makes more sense to update the MacBook since everything else in the product lines have shed the "plastic" housings and gone to aluminum...

The poll is not what you THINK will be released but what you MOST WANT to be released. I think that's why the "ultra-portable" is so high.

Movie rentals are fine if you live in the US. But any type of iTunes related new media will undoubtedly reach the rest of the world much later. Being in Montreal, I went for the ultra portable, but a straight forward iPhone for Canada (1st gen 2nd gen, whatever) would have been my pick had it been on the list, and with an unlimited data package! I am tired of paying $25 for every 4MB of data I use.
something else
.Mac syncing of Mail accounts and settings that actually works, when using two different Macs.
New Displays
New displays, new displays, new (better) displays. They are the oldest thing going, and I want one with an iSight built in, and better color consistency.
New laptops
Plan on buying a laptop in the spring, so I put Macbook Pros, although maybe it would be better if they came out in the spring so I could truly get the top of the line…
Mac
I want a Mac, not a iMac or a Mac Pro, i want a plain $1200 Mac, with 4x HDD, 1-2 core2duo's, SLI pci-e video.
Mac
i think two disks would be enough for a mac notpro. to have one empty easy to access slot to add a disk for large media and/or time machine. imacs are beautiful but upgrading a hd is insane operation.
Mac
I agree with scotepi in his desire to see a mid-range Mac where the parts are user replaceable. However, the specs can be less and satisfy me. At least two hard drives, a standard size optical drive and a single graphics card would be enough for my needs. However, up to 8GB of RAM, and quad-core capable is a must.
Mac
In addition, having these user replaceable components would allow for some other functionality that I'd like to see, and that is BluRay drives and the ability to play protected content. Of course, an updated iMovie that is HDCP capable would be a huge bonus.
Mac
you can't get a Mac Pro cheap either.. cheapest config is $2300 (single CPU). I remember when you can buy a power mac for $1600 or so.. not anymore. Mac Pro is out of reach of everyone and iMac is the new Mac. Apple should go back to the quadra and performa days :) hmm... no!
Modest Requests
At this point I could care less about new hardware. I would love to see new functionality added to both the iPhone and Apple TV.
1394c Port
I used to want to see eSATA ports on Macs, now that the new Firewire standard has been ratified I'd rather see that instead. About the same speed as SATA, but more flexible.
10.5.2 of course
As I am living nightmare with Leopard on my Quad G5 (works good on other macs), I am ignoring every kind of news and hoping for a huge 10.5.2 update which will stop me from going back to 10.4.11.
The release of the iPhone SDK!
... so finally we can truly look forward to some third party native apps that don't require us to risk bricking our phones! |
