Comments on: Conroe Lands! http://www.randomprocess.ca/2006/07/13/conroe-lands/ NOT just another WordPress weblog. What were they thinking when they came up with that tagline anyways?

Merom isn't supposed to launch until August and who knows when Intel'll actually be able to ship those in volume to manufacturers. After all, the Core Duo is holding up quite well to the competition. The main focus is the desktop where Intel hasn't had a competitive part for the last, oh... 3 years or so. Didn't they say August for the Mac Pro? (WWDC or somesuch?) And did Intel ever deliver on their promise. I've already picked out the components for my next system. It's going to be a nice desktop so that when the mobile Santa Rosa platform comes out next year, I'll just pick up a cheap, light laptop and have a powerful desktop. Can't wait. :D Haha, I doubt the MacBook’s going to get a refresh anytime soon.

However, if the MacBook gets a refresh in the upcoming weeks to include it, I'm going to be pissed.
