    I know this has been discussed and that there has just been a tweak to the Macbooks....
    anyone care to guess if there is likely to be any further changes to the Macbook before Sept. I don't need the dedicated video, nor is there a problem with the speed. I wouldn't mind the LED screen (for a longer battery life) and, of course the Leopard (and, therefore, Bootcamp) update.
    I know the latter is now scheduled for October but any thoughts on whether you think the OS or the LED on the Macbook might happen before Sept (school).

    thanks

    There's no way to tell for sure, but seeing as how apple just recently updated the macbook processors, another update will probably be a ways off.

    My prediction is that Apple adds the LED screens to the macbook and the iMac when Leopard is released. But I have no real basis for that, it's just a thought, which is all there will be until apple actually does something.

    Apple are so unpredictable there really is no way of telling. I'd sort of generally agree with system_159 but I really don't know.

    Don't try and get behind the Apple mentallity - they're hardware and marketing is good but everyone who works there is round the bend (at least everyone I know who works there is so don't try and predict it otherwise you'll go mad. lol.).
