That's pretty cheap for an LED-backlit LCD monitor.

Wow! Are the cinema displays really that old ?
I see what you're sayin arn.
But it is so much fun to witness the chaos nowAMEN!! Everybody please go to sleep, tomorrow is the day
...or maybe it's a Macbook Touch
I cannot think of anything that could be gained by adding a touch screen to a MacBook
I've never purchased an Apple product. I was only considering one because that's what my school used. Hopefully Apple wows me tomorrow or I'll just get the 15" Dell for $600 with firewire ports, more usb ports, ATI dedicated graphics, blu-ray, better specs than the Macbook, etc. Bill Gates is still gangster, so don't expect him to keep slipping up in the future. We'll see tomorrow. Macbook for $799 with blu-ray, 2 firewire ports, dedicated graphics, etc and I might be sold.
Powerbook duo
so it might be like the 90s, again. If this is true its the Powerbook duo all over again

This is going to be awesome. I have been waiting to see what Apple do with the re-desgned cinema display for an age now!! It makes sense the standard MacBook would come in at $999

It is not just you. Arn or someone else in the know would have to confirm this, but this go around seems much more chaotic than usual.
ME! I agree, Apple realized they couldn't stop every single leak, so instead they're making so many leaks we don't know what to believe.
Just preparing for work here in Belgium, and I just knew I had to check Macrumors before I left.
Been a busy night Arn
I'm with the docking station rumir, as that is what I'd like to see. However, an $800 LEd is exactly the sort of thing that would hurt Apple's bottom line...
We'll see

My post will focus on the rumors around the Macbook Pro as that is what I am most interested in.
1) Macbook Pro with dual NVIDIA GPUs in an SLI configuration to drive a large display while docked.
2) Elegantly implemented multitouch trackpad with no physical buttons with new magnetic latch.
3) 24" LED based dock with a USB hub or firewire hub built into the display.
#2 has nothing to do with the dock rumor, but it is something I find interesting at the very least.
#1 and #3 could bit together quite nicely because all that graphics power isn't really necessary when dealing with such a small display.
Bring on tomorrow.. my credit card is almost empty and I need to run up the balance.

this actually gets me even more excited because now i don't know what to expect anymore. woohoo only a few hours to go!
I really believe that this is the result of Apple shifting strategies to deal with leaks.
Well have fun with your Dell, It's fine id actually prefer less people using Macs so i look cooler in public.
As long as there are updated macbooks, I'm happy. I could fork out for a MBP, but it would be extreme overkill for me. Heck, I need a laptop even more badly now my EEE PC charger decided to cark it yesterday
Except for the fact that the one you posted obviously competes with HIGH END displays and costs twice as much as a 30" ACD.
