Well it seems theyve removed the only practical way to open the laptop lid….

I think you are all overlooking the most obvious problem. Take a close look at the trackpad on the open model. That thing wouldn’t be even remotely usable.

The photo in this post looks very much like someone got some kind of black sticker skin for their MacBook Pro and replaced all of the keys with black ones. The “Pro, on the go” image just looks like a hastily thrown together 3D render.

Reasons this isn’t the new MBP:

1) The keyboard will almost certainly adapt the “new style” of Apple keyboards seen in the Air and the updated weireless keyboard etc.
2) There is little chance that bottom half of the book will undergo absolutely no style changes (that looks EXACTLY like the keyboard and surroundings that I’m using to type this comment).
3) The chassis is identical in shape and apparent thickness. They wouldn’t wait 5 years to do a design refresh and only change the color of the lid.

I’ll put down twenty bucks that the ‘One More Thing’ will be Aroma Therapy – in the form of benzine vapors.

And the copy in the more official looking image looks all wrong. I’d hope they’d never use beastly to describe anything. And I’d imagine they’d say “Pro on the go” rather than “Pro, on the go”.

This is the worst mockup yet. The screen is practically square on the open laptop. It also doesnt line up if you were to close the lid. You guys cant see how awkward these look?

it looks totally real except for the fact it is ugly and apple would never make something this ugly
