DailyTech - New MacBook Pros Freezing When Stressed, Update Adds More Problems

DailyTech - New MacBook Pros Freezing When Stressed, Update Adds More Problems


Uh oh... a lot of people have been complaining about the new 2011 MacBook Pros (yeah the blazing fast new ones with thunderbolt and cheaper than 2010 model)

Well I for one, am glad I kept my 2010 Macbook Pro... according to many articles (including the one above) there seems to be some SERIOUS issues with the 2011 models freezing up when under stress (for us DJs it means when we are running traktor on 4 decks, lowest latency possible, all effects unit turned on, keylock on etc) and yesterday's system update did not seem to help, even causes MORE problems?

Just interesting to see!

so yeah, probably best to wait a bit before picking up the 2011 MBP's?
