Now this really pertains to a lot. Whether you are talking how Chicago lost it at the last minute or how Dallas was able to bring it into OT with a field goal while the clocked ticked 0:00 to only lose it again on a touchdown return from a deflected punt. Or, you can apply this to our current Apple situation. These could very well be very good fakes. Prior experience has shown that we may be looking at the genuine thing here. But we don't know for absolute sure. Let's call this, "On any given Tuesday, Apple can do anything they want." At 11:59pm on Monday night, Steve Jobs could be at home, angry at the outcome of the Giants game and decide to change the entire lineup of PC's. Come Tuesday, they may have some radical renders and say "shipping in about a month." Until El Jobso actually steps on stage and shows a MacBook and MBP that look identical to these spy shots, we don't know jack. And I bet you, Jobs loves every single solitary minute of it. If I was in his shoes, I would.

That doesn't look right. Unless they are using wafer thin speakers. Damn, that's thin. Comparing those ports to the ports on my 17" MacBook Pro, the new ones (if these are legitimate) look to be about 1/10" to 1/8" thinner than the current MBP or around .9 to .875 inches thick.
