WWDC is coming up and I was wondering if you guys think the MBP will get a minor refresh (processor/OS). I wasn't sure whether to wait after the first or two of June to purchase a new MBP or just pick one up now!

How exactly often do they happen? I plan on getting an FW very soon, I could buy one early Feb, or wait until middle march will be the best times for me to buy one financially wise. My question is if I wait until middle March sometime, do you think there will be some upgrades on it opposed to the current FW390CTO?
View 3 Replies View Relateda lot of folks think it will go to 16:9. Will it go down to 1920 x 1080 for the next version of macbook pros 17 inch?
Or will they keep it the same?
The only other alternative is a higher resolution 20x11 or so I forget the exact number
Any word on the refresh? The hardware on the XPS line is looking a bit dated.
View 10 Replies View RelatedAnyone have a clue as to what and when we are going to get with a NEW XPS 13.
I would love to see an i core CPU and a5000 series GPU.
If there is infact an XPS refresh how much of a change would moving to a 9xxx vid card make over the current 86xx

View 7 Replies View RelatedNow that new windows 7 and new intel processor came to market, do you think Sony will upgrade VAIO FW? I really like it, but want to take it in white + I really hope NEW video card arrives + DDR3 RAM is available. I'm not hard core gamer, but still want to play from time to time.

Are they just clearing mass stock to come out with a new SR refresh?
I'm a somewhat pleased (after months of displeasure) SXPS1645 owner *points to sig* but after 5 months of carrying this thing with me to my campus daily (and pretty much everywhere else I go) this machine is heavy and big and bit overkill since when I'm outside I rarely use it for video editing and gaming which I tend to do at home. So for the Fall(ish) I'm going to be in the market for an ultraportable, but after using this machine it's going to be hard to go to a machine with a wimpy atom processor or even a ULV C2D. So I found the Adamo XPS and it appeals to me in the same way the SXPS did, an eye catching design that isn't bulky and still performs well. However looking at the specs currently available for it I was disappointed. It's using a hodgepodge of outdated parts. I wanted to basically start a thread on potential component refreshes for the Adamo XPS, in the hopes that by the time I'm ready to purchase one some of these things will become reality. Also I'm curious about other brands of ultraportables (NOT netbooks) that people use/have used and would recommend.
View 10 Replies View RelatedMaybe I missed it? Since I'm sending my 1645 back and my wife likes her 1340 a lot I was curious if anyone heard anything at CES or otherwise about a refresh of the XPS 13 line.
Would really like to see one with an i3 or an i5 and a 335nvidia ro better with 1gb... but i sort of wonder if they'll wait until after the Alienware m11x is out and loses hype so that it doesn't have any competition.
Is dell going to refresh the dell studio 17 soon with a 4xxx series ati card?
View 10 Replies View RelatedDell's has been very quiet on their successful line of business laptops. Is there any news or rumors on yet to be released Vostro's? I would like to see something new other than the A860, 1510/2510, and 1710.

View 10 Replies View RelatedI'd like to buy an M1530 but it hasn't been refreshed in forever. Does anybody know if Dell is phasing out this series to replace it with the Studio XPS series?
I'd like to get any computer of comparable build quality, i.e., with a magnesium alloy frame but options around this price range seem limited. I don't want a Thinkpad
New Vostro 1320, 1520, 1720 have arrived and they are sporting the 9300 GS.
View 10 Replies View RelatedMy friend is thinking about pulling the trigger on a new vaio Z. He needs it for the fall school semester so he doesn't need it now, but it would be nice to have. I know no one knows when Sony will do a refresh but do they typically refresh this early? I read others talking about a refresh coming in May or June, but that's only 3-4 months after the Z was actually released. Is this a realistic refresh time frame or should he just buy it? Really don't want to buy and have a refresh two weeks later.
View 10 Replies View RelatedThe dm4 is green lit, its going to have AMD and Intel CPUs, and ATi hybrid/switchable graphics (possibly the intel models could have optional Nvidia graphics not sure). The dv5 is coming back (in a much different, new style form), and the dv6 and dv7 will be overhauled so that styling wise they are somewhere between the new G62 and the Envy (dv5,6,7 will be closer to the G62 but with an imitation Envy one piece "clickpad" that in my opinion is not very good). The big news is that there will be AMD quad core CPUs available in HP notebooks for the first time, AND some models of the dv6 will feature touch screens. They are also going to have different color schemes and some of them will feature a metallic shell. Also they now will have island style keyboards, like the dm3s.
View 10 Replies View RelatedIts been almost a year since the HDX18t was released. Isnt it time for an upgrade?
View 5 Replies View Relatedhowever, there are some issues with the HP Envy 15 that I still find undesirable. I don't know if I can wait till it gets another refresh, since it was just recently renewed with the i5 processors (and as I gather from these forums, addressed squeaky build issues, monitor problems, touchpad firmware update, etc). Or perhaps I could wait a little longer for the rumored HP Envy 14, which may arrive before an Envy 15 refresh.
Having never been interested in HP computers before until now, I wonder if there is a general predictability to how often HP refreshes their laptops? (like Apple products, which results in purchase guides with timelines, like this: [url]
I've been thinking of getting a Studio XPS 16.
However, before I buy one I want to know if there's been any word on dell refreshing the CPU or chipset on this model? I would rather wait 6 months to buy a new laptop than to buy it and have a newer model come out.
It's been a while since I kept up with the latest mobile processors and chipsets. I found a powerpoint presentation that indicated Intel would release the T9900 in the second half of 2009, but not sure if this would also include new chipset.
I'm a bit out of the loop. Is the M4400 due for a major refresh any time soon? If so when, and what major components will be replaced (gpu, hopefully)?

View 9 Replies View RelatedCan anyone tell me what the refresh rate on the RGB LED screens that Dell is putting in their new m6400 precision line? Is it the same 60hz that their screens usually are or is it higher now that they are using LED?

Well im currently using the Dell XPS M1330 since 2008 let me say it has been awesome! The only problem has been the battery which has been dead since early February I believe so I have been operating using the adapter.
The dead battery is still in the laptop.
However, now my idle temps are over 75 c and often over 80 c, so im thinking about selling this in fact I will be selling this shortly. Especially given the fact that the warranty ran out in February of this year.
Anyhow, im wondering if the XPS line will be refreshed in 2010 and when can we expect some new XPS models.
I only purchase my computers from Best Buy and currently they really do not have anything which really grabs me
M11x to get upgraded to low voltage I-Cores less than 6 months after the M11x was introduced. Still no refresh of the XPS 13 in sight?
If then can put arrandales into an 11.6" unit, they can figure out how to do it in a 13.3". Ya think?
Dream specs:
I5-540M - I7-620M
HD 5650 (5670) or GT 335M
4GB DDR3
13" RGBLED
I'm debating getting one but if it's due for a refresh soon I'll wait...
