Supposed Next-Gen MacBooks

With the Apple's Notebook-themed event coming up this Tuesday, everybody's rambling on about what new notebooks could be announced. Lots of 'leaked' photos of new MacBooks are coming in all the time, so here are a few of the hi-lights.

These three are from Apple.Pro and Engadget. They are supposedly the brand new aluminum MacBooks, or at least the casing for them. I'm really skeptical, though. Do you have any idea how easy it is to make a homemade aluminum case and pose it as a real leaked MacBook casing? I'm betting that this is just a bunch of nerds trying get their five minutes of fame, and if that's the case then, well, mission accomplished.

Now this is more like it. These two images, one from Technominds, and one from Cult of Mac (which is, by the way, my favorite Apple site), are supposedly ones of the upcoming MacBook Pro. They are supposedly taken by Apple employees. The images are very good. Notice how the second one shows the Apple employee taking the picture, as shown by the iSight camera in the MacBook. Boy, that guy must be in big trouble with Steve now. Another thing: Notice that the side of this model is the same as the side of one of the previous pictures of the MacBook casing. It has the same... I dunno what they're called... 'dot things' on the side. It all keeps adding up. I can't really imagine them being fake. But who knows, people have been able to do crazy stuff with Photoshop.

Thanks to all the blogs that these images came from!
