Surely Apple® won't let WWDC slip past without some sort of announcement in regards to their computer line up... surely? I reckon they will announce MBPs at WWDC with availability from early to mid July.
And one last thing... We're getting out of the whole "computer" thing, and we're moving fully into services and devices! Xcode for Windows is out now!
I don't know if they can afford (not financially..) to announce new Macs in June and then start selling them in July. Nobody is going to buy any Macs in that period, since new ones are coming. 10 days before they are out in the wild is about as much as I can foresee happening.
Hopefully they don't take Sony's Sales Prevention Team tactic and announce that new better stuff is coming in three months, effectively killing the Z series sales. Make it available on the day of the announcement or the day after, Apple.

I'd agree, except I think that's probably already the case ^^ and since they need an event to launch the macs, i think they'd trade 2-3 weeks of no sales for the splash effect of announcing at WWDC. Lots of people will be excited about the new products, if they do come out at WWDC
Actually LOL'd at this one. Of course iMessage would become cross-platform, as well as apple pay
It's possible, we may not like it but it's very possible. So far we've had one half decent rumour and we are two weeks away.
It's very possible
and don't call me Shirley
they already do at every new iPhone launch, since some european countries are in the "second wave" (or third) they just present the new product, they make it available in the first wave markets and at the same time they drop the prices of the previous generation in the countries where they postpone the launch.
"This is serious. We need to get this man to a hospital!"
"A hospital? What is it?"
"It's a big building with patients in it, but that's not important right now..."
Don't go by the rumours, NO ONE is interested in leaking Mac rumours anymore, the people that provide the leaks from the factory's etc get more money for iOS device leaks, they are not interested in leaking any Mac info. It's frankly amazing we have what we do!
Just read the front page of this website, so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so many rumours ALL about the iPhone.
They will launch the new MacBook Pro lineup at WWDC this year, this year is the laptops 10th anniversary, the chips they needed from Intel have been launched. They would have been give engineering sample chips from Intel last year for development.
They literally have NO excuse to not launch new MacBook Pro's at WWDC.
That really depends on what the competition is doing. It might make financial sense to pre-announce far in advance if it also means people holding off on buying competitors' products.
What do you mean with "second"? Is it the one we just saw happening, coming with Skylake m3,m5?
I have NO idea what 'rekt' means???
And yes they will announce them. KGI Securities have already stated so, new MacBook Pro's to be launched in the fourth quarter and Apple's fourth quarter starts at the end of June.
I make no apology for trusting the words of a source for Apple leaks that has been proven time after time after time after time to be 100% accurate, rather the take what a totally random person on an internet forum with zero credentials or reputation say's
I may have missed the information reading back and forth between threads. How strong is the possibility of a 13-14 inch MacBook to accompany the current 12" model?
Has the been any hints of prototype testing?
It may be a long shot for Apple to announce 3 new MacBook models next month.

But whom do they have to report to? They are private company, they can do whatever the **** they want. Maybe they want to silently abandon Macbook Pro for all you know. After all even new Mac Pro has not seen updates in years.
