When are new MacBooks coming out?

Answer :

answer:The earliest they’d come out would be at Macworld Expo, January 15–18, 2008. Another good thing to keep an eye on is the MacRumors Buyer’s Guide. It has only been 55 since the last MacBook release. MacBooks are on a 200-day average release cycle. On the other hand, it has been over 200 days since the last MacBook Pro release…not to mention the flying Mac sub-notebook rumours.
