I have been waiting for the ivy bridge to be released in the macbook pro because power draw is huge when on batteries.
But a "tock" which I feel nobody has mentioned and is almost the sole reason why I am patiently waiting for the next MBP is 4K screen resolution. I feel that "retina display" type dpi becomes possible with this feature. The next release of OS X shows development to utilize 4K potential.
Gaming may be poor performance since GPUs may have to get a substantial overhaul and nobody probably has a desktop screen that does 4096x2304 pixels. What it does afford presently is editing 1:1 1080p footage with room for an editing interface.
Or was this removed?? Is this why nobody is talking about it?

Oh yeah, just about forgot; something else that ivy bridge affords: Thunderbolt, for what it's worth.
