New MacBooks set for October?
With all this iPod nano talk, gossip on the new MacBook has seemingly disappeared. But now the rumour mill is cranking up again, with the boys at Electric Pig reporting that the new machines will be ready to buy at a knockdown price next month.
Analyst Richard Garner, from Citigroup, seems to think the aluminium clad laptops are already shipping and will cost $999 in the States. You can expect a UK price of £599, a ton cheaper than the current bottom–of–the–range model.
He also reckons we'll be getting backlit keyboards and a thinner frame. Wouldn't that be nice. We're actually gagging for one now, so all this waiting is starting to do our heads in somewhat.
What do you think? Will Apple drop new MacBooks in October? Let us know what you think in the comments section.
