    Thanks for the advice...I will make sure to wait for the new one due to the port, I am still very VERY skeptical about it, apple doesn't publicly announce issues with their computers so if you hear of incidents of a new one failing you could probably multiply that by 100 to get the actual number.

    That tight of fiberoptic integration was not ready for the market unless if intel poured alot of energy into it over the last 6 months.

    I'll just wait it out, see how tp2 works with my current comp and how tp2 integrates with maschine. I gotta know what kind of workload I will be using.

    Being able to pull songs off my desktop and onto my laptop in half the amount of time will be a huge advantage though.

    Just bought my very first MacBook pro and I'm loving it. I have not had any issues with it even when I'm runnin The Brige and 2 sound cards. I would say hold off untill the new ones come up refurbished.

    Just remember (the same thing happened with the S4) you will only see posts on forums about people who have trouble with the product. So when you're looking, you're looking at directly into the pool of people who had issues with it. The people whose work flawlessly will rarely say anything on any of the forums since they're too busy playing with their new toy.
