New MacBooks dropping plastic for aluminum

senthil03 · 28th September 2008, 17:28

Just was going through CNet and came across this news..

Mac posts - Apple - CNET News

Other than the exteriors, is there anything exciting in the new Mac Books?

Apple has just announced it, new notebooks coming on Tuesday 14th of October

even though my Macbook is still very new, but i would put it on Shufflegazine classifieds if they cut the price

We're also looking closely at this event to potentially replace some notebooks.

Hi, I am new to this group and abt to buy my first MB. Am glad i stumbled on this news abt a new MB. When u said new notebooks coming Tues, 14 Oct, does it mean it will be in stores on that day? Got a friend leaving for north america and she will be in canada on 15th and will get me a MB, (its so much cheaper there). I hope the new one will be in stores by then....

Nobody knows for sure.
Its not unusual to launch a product that will be in stores at a later date.

The first iPhone was launched 6 months before it hit the market.
But Apple does, try to have products in stores on the spot.

It will take some time before they hit the markets here.

Story on Engadget they do look nice.

The new line up will be announced today apparently at 21:00 local time I think.
