Dunno about a macbook quad ... I wouldn't hold my breath, not to mention the fact that it's overkill for a laptop at this point in the game
I didn't think there was such thing as overkill when it came to getting a more powerful computer
Alos, there are definitely rumours floating that Apple is going to release an upgraded laptop before Christmas - a core-2 duo (so isn't that a Quad). I got this off the internet at

AppleInsider continues to feed fuel to the fire that MacBook Pros will see updates in the coming weeks.
According to the rumor site, current MacBook Pro production has slowed as Apple prepares to ramp up the revised Core 2 Duo MacBook Pros.
These reports are joined by tips from insiders who say the Cupertino, Calif.-based company is preparing to begin -- if it has not done so already -- manufacturing ramp of its holiday line of MacBook Pro notebooks.
Reportedly, revisions of the 13" MacBook and the 15" and 17" MacBook Pros are complete and are anticipated to be released before the holiday season.

So, maybe I'll wait another 6 weeks just to see. I also have heard that MachFive doesn't work or at least is not certified to run on the intel Mac's yet. Who knows when MOTU will upgrade that product.
