Apple Pushes Back Ship Date of MacBook Pros

February 16th, 2006 Posted in Technology |

Launched with a bang and originally slated to ship in February, Apple has now changed the shipping date for its MacBook Pro line of notebooks to anywhere from 3 to 4 weeks out. This indicates that March will be the MacBook Pro’s shipping time, but it’s still uncertain on exact dates.

When Apple launched the new Core Duo based iMacs in January, Steve Jobs was very firm on launch dates and in fact, the iMacs were shipping on the same day as the announcement. No details were given as to why the MacBook Pros were delayed. During announcement time for Apple, many of Intel’s customers expressed feelings of uneasiness in regards to Apple receiving Core Duo chips before anyone else.
