Hi, just to ask where to check the cycle of Macbook change to new model?
Or is it normally new spec or model come out at middle of each year?

Thanks for ur answer.
Maybe is i make the question not so clear.
Actually is I plan to buy a macbook pro 13 inch.
But I am just afraid once I buy today then maybe tomorrow will come out the new specs or new model.
So just wanna check when is the normal cycle of model change for apple macbook?

Thanks

if u read the link the life cycle for MBP is 208days = 6-7 months..

And the last refresh is Apr 2010... likelyhood next refresh is early Jan 2011

neway no point playing the waiting game... tech get updated just so often... get it when u need it

Ya..agreed.
The waiting game is really headache and I guess is not worthy to just wait for it.

Agreed .. but Intel just announced its mobile i3 and i5 processors update .. so probably there will be only a speed bump .. but .. errm.. the current MBP design has been used for I believe almost two years ..

Ya. Is almost 2 years.
I bought my macbook alu when first launch back at Nov 2008.
But still is the coolest among all and not giving me any problems after so long of using.

Based on the report from the 'guideline' it does looks like 'maybe' next month will update with something new.
But really who knows?
Like Macbook Air, the date already pass 200+ over days.
But still not any update from then.
