Last week we discussed a couple of rumors regarding “the brick”. Now we get the details as Apple just released a major update to the MacBook line.
The new models feature the same unibody aluminum construction process as the MacBook Pro.
Apple has two full pages of sweet geeky detail posted on http://www.apple.com/macbookpro/.
Both models include the new all-glass trackpad.
Sphere: Related ContentAfter my initial article on what the next famous plans of Steve Jobs might be (rumors tell us about an announcement on 14th October 2008), I found this interesting article yesterday: Apple 2.0 Has Steve Jobs built a secret MacBook factory? Besides the rumors I summarized in my original article this publication claims it might be the secret behind the “brick” might be the following:
“What the Brick really is, according to Weintraub’s sources, is a block of high-quality, aircraft grade aluminum out of which Apple’s new laptops will be carved using robot-controlled lasers and high-powered jets of water in Jobs’ new factory.”
More and more riddle about “The Brick” from Apple are raising up in different blogs.
Steve Jobs announced a new Apple product appearing on the market by end of the year, code named “The Brick” seems to be confirmed by Apple but there are - as usually - no more hints or information. There are a lot of speculations what The Brick might be:
a new MacBook
a new MacBook Pro
a wireless USB hub
a Mac Pro mini tower
a new Mac mini or a new Apple TV line
Other believe that The Brick is not only looking physically like a brick. After all, how do you break “Windows”? Got it? You throw a brick through them! These people believe that “the Brick” is Apple’s code word for its “Windows-killer”, be it a brand new product, or simply a series of price cuts and updates to existing Apple products so irresistible that no-one will think of buying Microsoft anymore.
Last but not least the “Window-killer” could be as well a the new OS X version 10.6. It has been announced for later next year only, but who knows? We’ll all see on 14th October 2008 …
Update: read as well this article - “the brick” or Apple 2.0
