Are New MacBooks MacBook Pros Really Coming Soon?

According to a story by AppleInsider there are signs that it is. Apparently production ready versions of the said computers have been spotted.

Just to be upfront, these are currently just rumors. We’re hoping it is true though.

The report is saying that the MacBook and MacBook Pro line of computers will share similar design cues and material. Aluminum will be used across the board. A black trim similar to the iMac is also mentioned, as is the tapered edges that originate from the MacBook Air.

Certain I/O ports have been taken out in order to reduce the size of the laptops. The report says FireWire 400 and DVI-I (Dual Link) port are out and will be replaced by smaller ports.

I’m really hoping that updated MacBooks and MacBook Pros arrive soon. The Mac front of things are getting to be terribly boring. I haven’t seen anything that excited me in quite awhile.
