Default New MacBook?

I'm going to buy a MacBook this summer before heading off to college in August. Is there any chance that a new MacBook will be released in the next few months? I don't want to buy one now if a new one is coming out soon (like with the iPhone). I don't follow any rumors about Macs, so I just wanted to check here. I'm excited about buying my first Mac, I've used a PC all my life. Thanks.

there have been rumors of a macbook refresh, but nothing at all worth basing a decision on, imo. They were all just updated in Feb/March, so they're still new in their lifespan. Also, today was the WWDC (a big event for Apple developers), and there was no mention of ANY Mac products at all.

So i say go for it. I switched earlier this year, and haven't looked back.

Oh yeah I forgot about the rumors of Jobs changing the MacBooks again. I would say if you want it then go ahead and get it as it seems unlikely another change will occur soon.

What do you mean by change?
-Like a new design
-More memory/specs?

Im gonna buy a MacBook, cause Ive heard from many forumers that the MBAir is garbage!
-haha! Well not exactly garbage but ya kno, not really worth the loss of a dvd-rom drive, and the constant forage/defect of dead pixels?

Had mine for about 3 months now and have a PC sitting on a desk collecting dust. The difference is like night and day. You won't regret it.

Why is there always leaked pictures of the new iPhones, but never any discussed on here of new MacBooks? Just a thought...

Because half, if not more, of the users here are Windows PC users with iPhones, and so there are not many Apple 'fanboys' like us to share photos of new hardware. Also combined with the fact that this is an iPhone forum. lol
