Possible. Lord knows apple has had plenty of touch interface testing done with their iDevices, so adding that UI to the iMac wouldn't require their usual "incremental" introduction of radical new features.
Got a tip for us?

Sweet!!!!!! Can't wait to hear what they have coming up! Let's hope they also announce some new software updates also!
Also, Cheetah. After they trim it up using their iOS knowledge...
Oh yeah, 10.0 was Cheetah. Never mind.
Clouded Leopard?
I am in need of a new MBP mine is soon 3 year old, but i am not sure if i should buy it this time or not.
Some say that big notebook update will come in 1Q of 2011.
BTW how come a new os? snowleopard was recently released not even 1 year old.

That is more like an update. Lion is supposed to be a major upgrade, in theory a total new concept from the rumors I heard.
More Cats to Come.

Let's start a rumor... Apple loses a patent suit and has to license Dos from MS and base OS X on Windows Millenium.
My MBP is 4 years old this month... still going strong, but the screen is somewhat dimmer. HHHmmmnnn... drools.

I seriously don't think it's fair to continue to sell a product (in this case MacBook Pro) at the full normal price, market it like its only just come out (on their website) then release a new one a few weeks later with no notice.
Thats only based on the assumption they do release a new model, but I mean in general with products across the board, especially when its something as pricey as a computer (especially a Mac).
Spose they are perfectly able to do that, but it sucks that there is nothing you can do.

In my opinion we could expect:
- Minor update of MacBook Pro (updated Arrandale processors, larger hard drives, better graphics)
- Major update of MacBook Air (New processor, updated design etc.)
- iWork and iLife 2011. Includes native .docx support for iWork etc.
- Minor software updates such as better Bootcamp drivers and Facetime
- Finally, announcement and preview of Lion
Hopefully, Its a preview of Mac OS X 10.7.
Any guesses on what the code name for it might be? Anyone?

Nah-- Microsoft has the best Marketing names for OS's
Nah... it would be more convoluted... Like "Sabertooth-Cat Windows 7 desktop professional"
I believe M$ has that name for their next OS.

same here dude! my gut is telling me new operating system and new laptops! i wonder what their gonna do next. if they do introduce new laptops im so waiting for them haha1 ill be ver happy to have the latest and greatest macbook pro! or maybe theyll come up with a new name...
Yup. Snow Leopard was mainly a backend update. Updating things to 64 bit, adding grand central for GPGPU etc. Presumably, Lion would include an UI overhaul amongst other things.

A cougar and puma are the same breed. And Apple already used Puma (for 10.1).

i also think it could be like the patent that was released that has a Imac/mac touch, that when turned flat is a touch screen mac, and when straight is normal..
i also thnk that if the computers are updated, its not going to be just minor, becuase what the heck would be the whole point of having the event if it was just minor.. i think they (all the systems) get touch screens, as steve said that touch screen is the wave of the future, and you can see that, in how every ipod/ipad is touch screen,
thats what i think... and why are we taking the invataion, dont we know apple usually has hidden messages in its invites, and its not so clear cut.....
