MacBook Pro Photo, No Physical Trackpad Buttons

I think the <3 JR basically confirms it to be fake.

You forgot about this:

For those doubting that it's a MB, not a MBP, read the label on the screen. It says "Macbook Pro"!

That said it is suspicious that the side doesn't have the express card slot, as the earlier spy shot did.

Image of issues I posted earlier.

Also note if the top and bottom edges are to be curved, the bottom should be concave out rather than in.

Look at the border on the left side of the screen. Things that seem to be in the background are seen through the supposed "aluminum case" when it could just turn out to be a big mess up in photoshop and the guy forgot to turn the opacity up.
For example that dresser thing and the wires
 
i'm kinda disappointed about the firewire exclusion trend.... anyone else use and enjoy fw400?

The second picture of it closed is the Macbook. The first one is a MBP.
 
macbook pro?

Zoom in on the model label. It should read "Macbook Pro." I admit the picture is blurry, but the second word doesn't look like "Pro" to me. The first letter looks script (cursive). Is it an "l"?

I'm sure, everyone I know has a matte finish.
Question then, why in the world did Apple abolish matte on the iMacs?!? I had never heard of ANYONE ordering a glossy iMac before that, everyone got matte on those as well. My model is the last one before this change & soooo glad I got it. :D

There was never an option for glossy on the iMacs. You either got Matte on the old models, or glossy on the new aluminium ones.

Not sure if anyone noticed this, but the bottom picture is a MacBook Pro.
The top is NOT because it is lacking a Firewire 800 port on the side, as the top one does have one.
So the "mystery port" cannot be a Expresscard Slot.

The letters in the first spy shot on the bottom of the bezel clearly say "Macbook Pro", not "Macbook".

It is likely that these are supposed to be the same laptops (the open and the closed one).

Hence there is an inconsistency between the two new spy shots, and the older ones showing the empty casing, because the latter have the express card slot.

Just to clarify some of the logical fallacies going on in this forum right now...

I've never had to use the trackpad buttons on a laptop if there was a double-tap function available. You can double-tap faster than you can double-click.

With glossy screen, I don't see how that's going to stop you from doing your work unless you have constant reflection ALL the time, which I highly doubt. Even if you do have reflection, I'm sure it will go away by changing the angle of the screen a tad. When I had the MBA, the glossy screen was the last of my worries.

You can get away with gloss, in-doors and indirect light sourcings that aren't natural light, ala the Sun.

That won't pass for outdoors with multiple reflective sources from the Sun.
 
I'm just not going to think about it and wait until tomorrow xD... It's not that far away. The whole idea of the LED display is very interesting though, total shock to me if that's actually what they're releasing.

Isn't this sort of an odd time to release a totally new product? Although, it has been quite some time since the last redesign / upgrade to the Cinema Displays.
 
Im putting my money down on these pics being fake, it clearly shows about half of the cover and i dont see any evidence of an apple logo which would be breaking a rather long standing tradition.
 
Amazing how every image that appear to depict something not released yet is fuzzy. Additionally, if this is a MBP, why are the ports different than the ones in the high quality pictures shown previously.

Note the missing hole and taped-out port at the front of the computer on the alleged new MBP. Ironic huh?

I don't understand your point?

The top picture directly correlates with the bottom. It shows how the person who has forged together this second picture for engadget has basically just flipped the image around, smudged out the large card slot hole and taped over portion.

There's a FireWire 800 port in both photos.

The Magsafe is a bit vague/poor on the forged engadget image, because it was out of shot on the bottom photo that was used in construction of the forgery!

Oh I see the Magsafe connecter now. Ha. Maybe that is indeed the MacBook Pro.
