17'' MacBook Pro at NAB? [Updated]
Appleinsider claims that Apple will be releasing their 17" MacBook Pro at the National Association of Broadcasters conference next week.
The NAB Conference takes place between April 22-27 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Last year, Apple announced Final Cut Pro 5, Motion 2, SoundTrack Pro and DVD Pro 4 HD.
The new 17" MacBook Pro is said to be similar in form factor to the current 15" MacBook Pro but offer faster speeds, more storage, and, of course, a 17" display.
There are also hints that Final Cut Pro 6.0 could be sighted as well as potential updates to Apple's other Pro applications. Finally, the 13.3" MacBook is said to have been pushed to "next month".
Update: ThinkSecret agrees that a 17" MacBook Pro is coming at NAB.

Nothing but good news here. My dad will be going :).
He's interested in a MacBook Pro, now that Boot Camp and Parallels have been released. He runs a few apps for his IT job that are Windows-only... but he loves using his G5 at home.
A 17" MBP would be good for pros wanting more screen real-estate, but not necessarily the greater portability of a smaller laptop.

I'm gonna be really pissed if the FC 6.0 is released next week. I *JUST* sent the PO out for the 5.1 upgrade of the suite!
It would be nice to see the 17" MacBook Pro released. I'll bet it's a monster!

17" laptops are so big they should put folding legs on them so they can double as lawnchairs. :rolleyes:
I'm curious to see what performance enhancements it has - I'm sure it will be a monster.

I doubt it. Apple would surely stage a keynote of sorts. But they're not having one. Just a booth.

I planned on putting my piggy bank money into my bank account before NAB for this very reason, so i do indeed hope this is true. i do not care if these are announced and not shipping until june when the 2.33 chips come. KNOWING IS HALF THE BATTLE.
But if this is wrong i will weep with bitterness so pure it will be spoken of to children in four generations.
Blackadder, i agreed until i open reason and logic and had side by side windows with a decent amount of space in logic. tears of joy man.

Lord Black Adder, you should be ashamed of yourself! Haha, I dream of a 17 inch MBP for well, none other than a bit of cs2 and of course, bootcamp gaming.
If I could have it for just pure unadulterated fun and spelling mistakes, I would take it... My little go getter ibook g4 can get a new batter for portability, but really, I dare say power is paramount in my book at the moment!
How dare you...:eek:

It's likely to be announced, but unlikely to be 'available'. Apple are currently running a promotion that ends 26th June. My guess is the next Studio version will be made available some time after that.
I'm waiting to hear what the next version will have and how much, then decide whether to get 5.1 or the next version (6?).
