[Update] Fake Macbook Pro Images Trickle In, Mockups and Blurriness Galore

As October 14th nears, anticipation for Apple to release an overhauled notebook line is at an all time high. MacBlogz has received a tip to a few more images which seem to be over-exciting some people.

We’re not going to report about some blurry spyshots of Apple’s upcoming Macbook Pro when we think the images themselves are fake, but it’s nice to speculate. The images below have been sent to us claiming that they could be the next Macbook Pro. Keep in mind the source is entirely unconfirmed and they simply look fake.

“According to a few people who have been lucky enough to see Apple’s new hardware, the next-generation Macbook and Macbook Pro are sporting very similar case designs, and overall design aesthetic, while pulling inspiration from the Macbook Air and iMac,” MacBlogz recently reported. This latest set of fake blurry photos definitely play off most of the information that everyone has already heard. Either way, we should be seeing Apple unveil some new notebooks within the next few weeks.

The bottom image looks just like a regular notebook with a Macbook Pro shell on it.

Updates: The tipster claims to be an employee on Apple’s Design Team. Although the source mentions a few tidbits of information, they simply explain what you see above.

• The ‘Touchpad Dock’ rumor is false
• A new magnetic opening/closing system is in place
• The top of the ’shell’ is gloss, similar to the iPhone and the bottom is aluminum.
• The iSight is hidden nicely in the glossy frame
• The keyboard is similar to the MacBook Air keyboard
