Will we see a Macbook Pro redesign in 2012? Apple usually aesthetically changes up their notebooks and desktops every 3 years or so, what would you like to see them change? light/slimmer? maybe a radical change the implements touch more in-light of OS Lion being more touch friendly !

I'm hoping a new MBP, the ones with the SSDs for the OS, etc. will come out in the fall before the Xmas shopping season. However, if Lion doesn't have a lot of cool new features, I'l stick it out with my CD MBP running SL.
I want a higher resolution screen on a 15" than just 1400X900. Talk about 2006! Give me 2800x1800 retina!

1680x1050 has been an option on 15" since last year... 2800x1800 would be so tiny it'd be unusable.

You're not thinking forward. Think iOS improvements. Double the size of everything in the interface and the display becomes crystal clear.
Of course, apps would have to be updated to support the higher res. The OS (Lion) would double the pixels of older apps the same way iOS does for non-retina apps.
Problem solved.

I don't think it matters for a computer. I already can't tell the difference between pixels when I'm sitting at my desk viewing my 21.5" iMac, same with my 15" 1440x900 MacBook Pro. Increasing pixel density would only make the GPU push more pixels. Sure, some improvement could be made with the 27" iMac, but I don't really see the point. I don't need to be able to not distinguish pixels when I put my face half an inch away from my screen.
