More 'Brick' MacBook Case Images?












Tw.Apple.Pro has posted three small images of what appear to be a new MacBook case. The casing resembles the MacBook Pro case image leaked earlier today, but clearly represents a smaller screened laptop. Absent are the speaker grills of the earlier image.

From above, the keyboard view is nearly identical to the current MacBook Air case design, but the side shots reveal that it is not simply a MacBook Air case. The new laptop appears to have the larger trackpad found on the MacBook Air. The left side of the case (when facing the computer) houses all the ports as depicted in the earlier photo. Meanwhile, the right side carries a slot for the optical drive.

Apple.pro has been responsible for a couple of other case photos (MacBook Pro, MacBook) in the past few months, and the MacBook Pro one is believed to be real. Today's post however, appears to be from a different blogging account than the previous images.

^ seems it is a MacBook and looks like the spy shot that was rumoured here a while ago.

the case is just thicker than the ethernet port and includes an optical drive! i new Apple could make the case thinner and still get an optical drive in there.

I know I pointed that out... what I was referring to was the port arrangement on the side. Looks identical to me

I personally think these leaks confirm Oct 14th as the release date. Bring it on!

Interesting, and it clearly shows the plastic cover on the last pic... Can anyone compare the size of the trackpad here to current MacBooks?

Yeah i'm calling these valid and legit. Big trackpad YAY!
From comparing my own hand to the pic, this looks like it could be the 15" MBP!

hopefully these are for a Macbook. Having the optical drive on the side would SUCK...

That, there, my friends, looks like a 12" MacBook case if you ask me.

Absolutely fantastic!

Finally, a REAL UFO!

** I take it back - the clearance on the side looks more like it's probably a 13.3" after looking at the air **
