MacBook Pro on Tuesday next?


Mac4Ever, a French-language news site, has posted information from a reseller indicating that the MacBook Pro will be updated on next Tuesday, June 5.

Here's an edited quote of the Babelfish translation:

Here is the new one! I have just placed an order for the new MacBook Pro! Release is thus envisaged next Tuesday... Alas APPLE did not say anything of the specifications, so I ordered as a blind man... if I have the new one, I will reserve one for you.

Previously rumored for a Worldwide Developer Conference debut, the MacBook Pro is a crucial element of the company's computer product line. Recently, IGM reported on the 94-percent surge in portable computer retail sales posted in April.

(Props to MacRumors for tracking down this nugget)

Editor's note: A pre-show announcement / launch would help to drive WWDC buzz into the stratosphere. One only hopes that Apple has plenty of other Mac stuff to pitch at the show...
