I really want this event to be announced by apple already!
So we know new MBPs are heading our way, I also think this would be a good time to introduce iWork '11.
I know this is a bit ahead of schedule since they usually do this in April, but could we see a tease for iOS 5

As long as they get rid of the Core 2 Duos in the 13 inch pro and bump it to a core i3 i will definitely be buying the first day they are out
id be happy with this toomacrumors should post ll of the mockups in one post haha
I don't like the dock on that mockup though, too Windows 7.
that has to be the UGLIEST thing i have ever seen..apple would NEVER do that to us

I didn't know that iOS was too Windows 7-like, as iPhoto has basically just copied over that from iOS' GUI.

So, if apple were to release the new MacBook Pros on Thursday, would they be available in stores that same day?

help!
When I bought a new mac book pro about 2 weeks ago, I asked the sales guys if there were any new mac books or pros coming out soon and they said they didn't know of any.
should I try and return it and get the new one?

Of course the sales guy said that because..
a) They want to sell you things, preferably now
b) They don't really know about these releases any more than us and most likely cannot start making wild guesses to the customer about them
You can try return it in order to get the newer one if you really think it's worth it.
Its definitely worth it, even if the update is minimal it will still be an entirely new architecture which is clock for clock faster.

If they come out on Thursday will I be able to go to the apple store that afternoon and buy one?

Apple last updated the MacBook Pros almost one year ago with Intel's Core i5 and i7 processors. Apple has been due to refresh the MacBook Pros with the latest Intel Sandy Bridge processors which are said to be a significant improvement over last year's processors.
MacBook Pro stock has been dwindling internationally and this morning two Italian sites listed give new MacBook Pro part numbers (MC720, MC721, MC723, MC724, and MC725) that are said to represent the new updates. The new machines are said to be making their way to Italian resellers towards the end of the month with a released date of Thursday or Friday.
We've since heard reliable confirmation that this information is accurate and that the expected release date is next Thursday, February 24th. The move would be a bit unusual for Apple to launch new machines on a Thursday. So, if you are about to buy a new MacBook Pro, wait until next week.

I'm officially sick of the MacBook Pro rumors that provide nothing substantially new other than "The refresh will happen on this date" or "stocks continue to dwindle". I don't think I've seen this many redundant posts prior to a much-expected refresh that don't tell me anything that I need to know. And what's all this nonsense about refreshes having to happen on a Tuesday? Last I checked, any day of the week was fair game for Apple launches.
