    I take it I'm not alone in seeing this and thinking MBP MBP MBP.

    Any Apple employee care to risk torture and death and confirm a January release?

    Let the speculation begin!
    I'm hoping for a Macbook Pro with USB 3.0 and blu-ray within the next year- that's when I upgrade from my late '06 MBP.
    Either that or a black Powerbook G5 with carbon fiber casing and a DVD burner in it. That would be sweet...

    I knew there was a reason I was putting off buying a new laptop. I just hope that OEMs actually decide to bundle it with a decent GPU, not that GMA4500 garbage.

    @Nathan Obbards: Considering all CPUs will have a GPU built-in, it's up to OEMs to decide if they want something "better".

    The 's' is for a more efficient processor (usually slightly underclocked). They run cooler (and therefore quieter) and are used mainly in slimline and HTPC models.

    What's up with the codenames? I don't want my computer powered by a Bloomfield, I want it powered by a Desert Storm or something cool sounding like that.

    I think Apple just rather pay exclusiveness for their chips to avoid the hackintosh situation.

    I do wish this isn't truth, for hackintosh is doing a heaps of promotion of OSX amongst the geeks, And could be the best way to make people convert to the mac enviroment.

    @ridgecity: I dont think Intel would want to restrict its CPUs like that. ATM apple does have exclusive CPUs at launch before the other cos get them in a couple of months.

    If they hate hackintoshing they can always bring back the power pc lol!

    Oh no! Are you quite sure? Marked with an "S", no less? It does portend rather ominously, does it not? I think I will have to sit down and have a cup of tea on this startling revelation!

    It's a bit of a letdown on the gulftown, but it could just as easily be the case that they're simply already "reserved" by Apple.

    there had better be some good deals when the Windows 7 RC starts shutting down. It's so much easier to just buy a new laptop than deal with an OS install.

    In reply to Giz Explains: Intel's Entire Confusing Armada of Chips
    Although Intel doesn't market chips according to their codenames, the individual chip gets a model number that gives you an idea of how it compares, spec-wise (clock speed, cache size, etc.), to other chips in the same group.

    That's not entirely true. An Intel i7 870 (and 860 for that matter) are going to be a hell of a lot faster than an i7 920. They are different core types and that idiom holds true for each core, but the general public will see i7 920 vs. i7 870 and mistakenly think the 920 is faster.

    Just to make things more confusing, The new i7 8-series (Lynnfield) actually goes back to a P55 socket and double-channel RAM, but gets many better benchmarks scores.

    A decent Giz-Explains, but it could definitely use a chart and a clearer visual heirarchy. Also future chip technologies we should look out for? #intel
