MacBook unveiling rumoured for Tuesday
Published: 08 May 2006 09:45 BST
Rumour has it that Apple could introduce its first consumer MacBooks — the Intel-based replacement to the iBooks — as early as Tuesday, according to several Apple sites. That prediction is in line with earlier rumours that the long-awaited portable would finally arrive sometime this month.
Both Apple Insider and ThinkSecret are reporting about a possible press conference Tuesday to unveil the new line. And the Unofficial Apple Weblog notes a screen up on the Apple site temporarily on Friday that features the MacBook name, without the "Pro".
Apple introduced the 15-inch MacBook Pro in January and started shipping a 17-inch version last month. A ZDNet UK review gave the laptop mixed marks.
Apple has promised to transition its entire product line to Intel chips this year, with the Power Mac and iBook among the key products yet to undergo such a transition.
