hey id thought id start a thread on whether you guys think when will apple release new spec models of the macbookpros. Im looking at a new one as at the moment my macbookpro is out of applecare and i think the logic board i think is gone.

Any luck on getting your MBP checked out to see if Apple will fix it out of warranty. Just thinking mine must be 4 years old (bought it secondhand) I would sell it only am afraid its not worth a lot and hate going through the hassle of dealing with buyers on adverts.ie Will just have to bite the bullet soon and pick a selling price and see who if anyones interested?

i got the mac working again, but i think i will get it checked in case the logic board was to fail as my mac is 3yrs old in june. so if the board was to fail after than id be concerned what it could cost me to get fixed.

All you can do is be sure to have multiple backups of your data and insure you have copies of your applications and serial nos . Don't just rely on time machine if thats what you use. Then if it does die, its just a hardware replacement.
As to the board, its usually cheaper to replace the notebook as even though the cost is lower than a replacement, the new board is usually only guaranteed for 6mths (as some other excuse will be given when it fails again) Like installed kitchen white goods, notebooks don't tend to like their boards being replaced and will find some other reason afterwards to keel over.
Check if the notebook was part of any general recall as you might get a board for free.

well im getting it looked at as i type with Mactivate, so hopefully they will give me good news!
