Macbook refresh rumours....?

I'm not sure it's just a mock-up. Intel released a picture earlier in the week showing a black Macbook as a promo for something of theirs, I like to think it's real, but I've heard there is a program called Photoshop.

That picture (shown below) doesn't - In my opinion - Look enough like a Macbook to be a new design leak...

Apple stock is again reported to have dropped off (waiting times) so I'd expect it sometime in the next week, best get the dust blown off my mac mini box because I'm due for a new mac, its been the oldest Mac I've owned haha. :o
 
<grits teeth> I'm happy with my 13"MBP... I'm happy with my 13"MBP... I'm happy with my 13"MBP... I'm happy with my 13"MBP...
 
I am also trying to resist the urge to upgrade to a new MBP. My Macbook works fine does what I want it to.

But god dammit I want to upgrade to a MBP especially if the new vers are out next week !
 
Think I might take the plunge this time. I have a Unibody MacBook (yep, they did exist :D ) and it's done me well for the last 2 1/2 years, but I would quite like a bump up to a 15" MBP, especially if the video performance is up to scratch.
 
Lol.... Surely you mean...

"Cos I want a 15" MBP...I want a 15" MBP...I want a 15" MBP...I want a 15" MBP...

Hahaha nope, due to the nature of my job the biggest it's ever going to get is 13". I upgraded from a 13" MB to a 13" MBP in October, so can't really see me jumping on this refresh (unfortunately).
 
Best Buy leaked pricing...

http://osxdaily.com/2011/02/20/macbook-pro-2011-refresh-appears-early-on-bestbuy-com/

SKU 1535918 – $2499
SKU 1535845 – $2199
SKU 1535836 – $1799
SKU 9755395 – $1499
SKU 9755322 – $1199

If you look at the current macbook pro US prices vs. UK prices, that gives something like this -

£2103
£1838
£1530
£1276
£1020

I assume there would be two 13" models, two 15" models and a 17". Here's hoping they're a bit cheaper though. I have about £1100 to spend plus student discount and would really like a 15" over a 13! I'm quite excited about this in case you can't tell...!
 
Will likely be getting me a new MBP 13" as soon as I can qualify for HE discount. Unlikely to be a big refresh again before october is there?
