Still no MacBook. What a shame.
- dijit 10y agoAgreed, but the event isn't over yet I think. I've been looking for over a year for a good (build quality) laptop which can run a unix-like environment. And I always end up circling back to macbooks, which have been comprised of very old hardware for quite some time now. Hard to justify spending so much money for a 3/4 year old CPU. The alternative is to have a machine that requires more maintenance than my 5/6 year old thinkpad running OpenBSD.
- artmageddon 10y agoFrom MacRumors live stream: 11:59 am For those joining in late, there have been no announcements about the MacBook Pro or other Macs as expected.
- dijit 10y agodoes that mean this is the end of the event? EDIT: yeah, it's the end.. sadface
- kayoone 10y agodid you check the latest Dell XPS Developer Edition ? They are pretty high quality and come with Ubuntu preinstalled.
- p8donald 10y agoDo you have one? What's your experience with it? I got a regular Dell XPS 15 (but the keyboard and everything else I think is the same) and while the laptop looks great I was expecting better quality for this price range.

- adamnemecek 10y agoNext month I believe.
- dijit 10y agowhat makes you think that?
- artursapek 10y agoThat's what macrumors has been saying for a while.
- adamnemecek 10y agoI also think that that's the standard schedule.
- banterfoil 10y agoAccording to this: http://buyersguide.macrumors.com/#Mac http://buyersguide.macrumors.com/#Mac, they are waayyyy behind schedule
- andyfleming 10y agoI didn't really expect any computer announcements during the iPhone event.
- IMcD23 10y agoIt's not really an iPhone event. It's Apple's September event. They could have easily done it.
