I'll wait for Ars Technica and MacWorld to properly performance test these revamped systems before I pony up the cash.
My local stores (Milwaukee, WI) got their shipments at noon.
Why do I know this? Cause this is being typed on my i7 15". Thanks for this post, I totally forgot to check software update. Will install once my iTunes library copies (in 2 hours...)
Don't leave us in suspense post a user report.

April 13 2010 at 6:03 PM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyNot really. You have to consider that most of the new MBPs in stores and the first ones to be shipped will have been flashed with earlier versions of the software. Some of them may have been put in the warehouse as much as 1 month ago, so they'll need to be updated to the finalized version. You see this happening with OS X releases too, usually within 1-2 days.
