MacBook Pro Photo, No Physical Trackpad Buttons

[TMA]

Wow... looking at the pics of the official new MBP, I'd say you were wrong.

Erm no, the 2nd image is a mockup all right. The ports are squeezed up much further to the back of the laptop than the new 15" MBP.

So yep, my theory was proven. JR had access to the new MBP (and the first photo is real) but the second is mockup based on what he/she had seen and WAS NOT A REAL PHOTO.

I feel I'm qualified to say

TOLD YOU SO!

I wonder where all the people who said the first JR photo was a fake are. Quiet around here... hahaa.

NO thanks. I guess they are debasing what originally made them strong with their Graphic Design market. Glossy Screens? Really?

Myself, I'm taking a "wait and see" approach. I like some of the changes they've made. I know that, in general, I prefer matt screens, but I'm willing to give this a fair shake. I'm not going to pass judgement against it until I can look at one in the flesh, so to speak.

OK, OK, I was wrong...

My guess, is the picture is so blurry because he was in a hurry to take the photo. I originaly assumed that both photos were fake. But if one of them were real, then I assumed both would be real. So I figured if JR had one in his possession, there should be no reason he/she didn't have time to take a good picture. But if the second IS fake, and the first one is real, I'm guessing he had a quick opportunity to take a photo when no was looking and that's why it's so darn blurry.

SIGH.... It is the new MBP 17".. Ever thought that the guy who has access and makes all these photo's might have seen it lying around? It might just be a case without innards or whatever.

Why would he make a mockup (especially such a dumb one at such an angle) when he has access and can make pictures. Remember that he also made pictures of the new ipod, so he obviously has good access, and it makes sense that at Apple headquarters the new MBP 17" case is already doing the rounds.
