Comma and full stop buttons not working fella? Makes Things so much easier to read.
Bought one in January (refurbished) and it's great. But battery life and weight are two things that come to mind as needing Improvement. Turn the screen anywhere above 50% and it's dreadful. Been getting 3-5 hours with screen brightness at my normal 70-100% definitely a step down from the air 2 at the same levels.
Sure, they could. Phil Schiller could also walk out onto the keynote stage wearing a Speedo.
If your question is will they announce a new MacBook Pro at this event, the answer is "no one knows." Apple has announced a wide variety of products at WWDC in the past, but never have they refreshed their entire lineup at once. Your guess is good as anyone else's what Apple will or will not do at WWDC 2017.
That said, WWDC has focused increasingly on software in recent years. The biggest focus is iOS followed by macOS. The two announcements you can pretty much bet on are A.) new iOS version and B.) new macOS version.
They could include new hardware in the keynote. They could just release the product and mention it in a press release. They could wait another month and have a media event.
Remember that the primary audience at WWDC are developers. Historically, Apple product announcements have been highly targeted to a media audience; you basically need to be recognized media to receive an invitation; you can't buy a ticket to an Apple product announcement.
Those are two very different groups and by including a bunch of product announcements at a developer conference keynote speak brings much of the attention away from the whole point of the event: getting developers to learn from Apple engineers.
But yeah, they could release a new MacBook Pro at this event.
What a joke, this might be the first one in a while that doesn't sell out. Glamorous San Jose, home to... office parks, washed up tech companies that can't compete, and freeways. Why would anyone want to visit there?
Good job saving a few million, bean counter Tim Cook.

Haha exactly! I'd drop $1600 just out of intrigue though to he honest.
Still, we want hardware.
Yeah, it's not like it's an even bigger city than San Francisco. Or isn't known as basically the capital of Silicon Valley, or one of the top US cities even.

You don't live here and you don't know what you are talking about. San Francisco has 100-1000x the cultural impact of San Jose. There is nothing in San Jose, NADA.
BTW the real capital of Silicon Valley (for any meaningful definition of the word) is Palo Alto.
And yet all that I posted holds true nonetheless. It's also interesting how made up assumptions are treated as facts somehow just out of nowhere basically. Certainly speaks quite a bit about what is said.
We have already covered this before.
Moscone is closed the next two years for renovations. McEnery is the most sensible nearby venue.
San Jose's admittedly lackluster cultural offerings are irrelevant.
End of discussion.
Two points:
1). Your statement is overly exaggerated using "Dread."
2). If it's just you that dreads the KeyNote, don't Watch it. Problem solved.
I don't dread them. I just stopped watching. Doesn't mean I've stopped buying though.

I will be disappointed if all you just said doesn't happen.

I don't think that was serious. Was it?

Cool story
.... full paragraph without accidently pressing reply to thread
And a few spelling mistakes
We could still see a March event, Apple may send out invites in a couple of weeks time.
WWDC is a developer's conference yes, starting with the State of the Union presentation. The WWDC keynote has been aimed at press for some time and Apple has to throw them a bone otherwise the investors would go bonkers.
