Yes, in less than two hours, Steve Jobs will reveal official details on whatever Apple’s planning to offer the world this time, and most likely updates on current projects. And the noisy Mac-loving minority has made sure that tech writers will hang on every syllable coming from Jobs’ mouth—for the “benefit” of their own readers.
In any case, a significant number of tongues are wagging over supposedly leaked pictures of the new MacBook. And you can bet someone was passionate enough to turn those pics into a clear mock-up for speculation to focus on (pictured above).
Speaking of which, rumors and theories over the upcoming MacBook event have proliferated all over the net. So it’s necessary to honestly, ignore all that noise. I’ll only pay attention if the new MacBook—reportedly styled like the current-generation iMac—fits the power-and-portability setup exemplified by the now-defunct 12″ PowerBook. It’s easy to admit that the MacBook Pro is powerful. Why can’t we have that power in a more handy package?
But that’s just me. What kind of groundbreaking announcement are you looking for? What should Steve Jobs reveal to retain your everlasting faith in Apple? Aside from a new laptop of course? A particular kind of service? Or even a gaming console? There’s no right answer, so feel free to comment away!
