There is no firm evidence of specs.

As a newb to the apple scene, ive got to say ive never known anything like this before. A silent product release over something so anticipated?

It just seems like a bizarre business practice. I can't even imagine it being profitable (unlike the crazes sony and xbox drive with supposed shortages on release of their consoles)

Finally, if it is released tommorow, how long will it be before i can go into my Hull (england) apple store and buy the entry level 13 inch macbook pro?

Hi, nice to see you're from Hull as well! But as I know, Hull does not have an Apple Store...we only have the KRCS which is an authorised reseller. But try your luck. They typically have stocks after a week or two. Last time I tried my luck with the new MacBook Air, no luck at all. So if you really want one on the 1st day, then I suggest you call KRCS first, if not available then go to Sheffield or Manchester to get one :)

Good luck!

Sorry, yeah the KRCS was what i was reffering to!

Perhaps it would be best for me to purchase online then? Going to Manchester or Sheffield would be difficult as im currently quite busy.
 
Friday

Training day all day on Friday, nowt happening on Thursday. Typical!

Late shopping on a THursday mind, so is there any chance of a release at 10am Appleland time, which would be 6pm in the UK?

That's 2-3 hours of shopping time left to buy my new Mac dammit!
Or will I have to skive off some boring training blah blah blah to get it...

It's so close, yet, so far away.

COME ON!!!
 
My point is that their is no official release

If I'm correct, they haven't been leaked. It's just rumors, as everything else. That spec leak could be fake as hell.

It's a rumour site so what do you expect, Steve Jobs to log on and confirm that they are real?

If they are fake then they've done a bloody good job and fooled a lot of people...
