I know one thing for sure:
This site has gotten allot of attention the past hour.
And since it's a store, I don't think they will mind..
Maybe it's just to get some free publicity: put a fake image on the net for a few hours, and then remove it. If one ask about it, just say it was a mistake.
Simple and it works!

That looks slick, it'd be cool if it's made out of the material the PS3 is made from or Black Anodised Aluminum
An unanswered question you can add to your score is whether Aperture can have a display without a menubar.
I show the site still up with the same photo.
I think it's the real thing. There are little details that make sense for the real thing but not for a mockup:
- The corners at the bottom are more rounded than with the current MBP. However, that's the same as on the DisplayPort website.
- The touchpad is much wider.
- The optical drive sits higher.

I don't think they would do that. It's a store for business customers and it belongs to one of the biggest companies in Germany. So it's not one of those small and shady stores who would need that kind of attention.
Agree with #1.
#2 I disagree with. No retailer gets these images ahead of time. Not even T-Mobile parent company.

I would be super excited about that black bezel. Looks very nice..
Here's hoping because I'm WAY over due for a new model..

I quite like it, whether it's fake it not.
I think people are going a bit too far with think how much different the form factor of the MBP will be. The MB will go with the airs slim, tapered look because it won't be runnng higher end parts. I think they will use distinctly lower end parts in the next MacBook, making it cheaper as has been
been rumoured. As a result the spec of the MBP will be significantly more "pro" so the form factor will be roughly the same because of the obvious space needed for the higher spec parts so I'm not expecting a massive difference in appearence.

If I remmember correctly this search engine is to check for illigal copies of images that might or might not be slightly changed.
In this way you can check if someone else has taken that image from your website and used it without permission.
And that is supposed to mean what?
Some would suggest this area with it's increase of fraud products on the market, may be promoting a fake.
Er Yes.
Full screen mode, and press H for the HUD, then mouse down for filmstrip-like browser...

This would be a very easy photoshop job. I doubt it is real but it looks nice if it is.

It *could* be real, and the bottom could be for the new 15". If they shaved some height off the screen they could've thickened the base to allow 12.5mm optical drives (which might confirm BD on the MBP's). You can't really tell, but that might be a silver chiclet keyboard on the top there too.
