Rumor February 6, 2010

macbook-pro-corei7-geekbench

An eagle-eyed forum member of MacRumors uncovered the benchmark results supposedly of an unreleased MacBook Pro with a Core i7 M 620 processor under the hood. The MacBook was listed with the not yet seen before model identifier of 6,1 and was running an unreleased build of Mac OS 10.6.2 ((Build 10C3067). The MacBook scored a respectable 5260 Geekbench score and outperformed all current MacBook Pro models whose scores top out in the 4000′s. This information would suggest that a new MacBook Pro model is on the horizon but it should be noted that the specs presented by the computer during the benchmarking process can be falsified. Fake or not, this rumor is compelling enough for us to hold off on buying a new MacBook Pro right now, anyone else a little hesitant to buy now, too?

    That’s the power of marketing…and the guys at Apple are geniuses at it. Look at us, analyzing specs to death, speculating and getting excited over perhaps what could be a new product…no doubt the computers are amazing, but we are paying for the brand and the look. I wonder, if Macs weren’t so attractive and looked exactly like PCs, and they didn’t have that ultra-sleek and modern feel to them, how much could they price their computers at? Not nearly as much I’ll bet! Oh well, I’m a victim just like the rest of us :)
