About damn time!
But nothing in the 13" for a i7? Surely that can't be right?

I always wanted pay a lot more for an i7 because it comes in a white case...
Bit disappointed with the 13" version, I see no real reason to upgrade my 13" MBP
Also a bit surprised they haven't gone SSD on them all either.
You can get SSDs - have to pay extra, click on Customize or whatever its called.

How many people are complaining about degradation of performance because of TRIM? [or rather lack of it]
Haven't seen any.
Everyone keeps moaning about it but most of them people don't know what/how its affecting them [if at all]
Cool thing to have/say but is it practical?

Wait what?!
Yes the performance of SSDs falls off without TRIM. This is not a question in doubt, this is a easily understood fact.
If your going to spend £300+ and thats what all the good ones still cost in any reasonable capacity for a laptop, you damn well want it to last without having to re-format all your data.
(outside of a laptop, on one of my 3 powerful dev boxes I had at an old place, this was not a problem, on a laptop that has heavy use, ie not a netbook... Its essential, given the target sterotype of photo geeks, it just shows how the reality distortion field works. I cannot imagine a more stupid sentiment than the "but is trim practical".)

Quite fancy the 15" model with the 1680 x 1050 screen, Win 7 install (dons flame proof coat), Steam installed and I would have a nice upgrade from my 13" Macbook
To pre empt posts I have given OSX and jsut prefer Windows 7, perhaps because I have been a Windows user for so long and I am stuck in my ways , Do a fair bit of gaming on the laptop so makes sense, however with Steam coming out for Mac things could change

hardley worth the outley for core i5/core i7 and gt330m
there £500 more expensive than a similarly equipped lenovo t510. sorely tempted though just dont know if its worth 500 more than the lenovo
I was excited about the mobile i7, until I realised that it's basically half an i7. 2 cores, 4 threads. That means it's not really better than the i5, and not an awful lot better than previous offerings...
