I see this as Apple's product positioning to accommodate a majority of users. This such machine would be essentially a MBP with lower graphics power and a different case material a…

The current enclosure appears to have a large enough bezel to support a 14" screen, but I doubt we'll see 15" MacBooks anytime soon.

Just the bigger screen apparently. What the OP needs to realize is that Apple has learned the hard way to keep their product line simple, with clearly differentiated offerings. T…

Umm....How are they dictating what screen size you need? They do have a 15.4" screen, but in a higher-end model. If you really need it that badly, you'll have to pay for it.

I would buy a 15.4" MacBook in a heartbeat. Over 40 yr old eyes create the need; for now there's CMD + to enlarge certain screens, but I do a lot of contracts that would benefit f…

The ultra light Apple notebooks, are going to be great, if they don't get hot.

I would be all over a 15.4" Macbook. Let's hope there is one on the way.
