Yes, yes, YES! This is the announcement we’ve been waiting for now for a little while. Looks like the media have received word that there will be a MacBook event on October 14th (that’s next Tuesday!) at 10AM PST. Invitations have been sent out by Apple’s PR department, so this is a definite green light to go. I can’t wait…
The event will take place on the Cupertino campus.
A quick list of some of the rumors we’ve all heard:
- New models and price points, from 8 to 12 base configurations ranging from $800-$3100
- New manufacturing process and facility to produce notebook casings from a single block of solid aluminum i.e. ‘Brick’ design.
- Wider touchpads, slimmer casing, and keyboards matching that found in the MacBook Air
- Nvidia integrated GPUs in MacBook line
- Possibility of in-built screens in touchpads
- Possibility of tablet-type Mac introduction (probably not… but who knows)
What are YOU hoping for???
