Rumor: Five New MacBook Pros To Ship Next Week

All of the rumors we’d heard before now suggested that the next MacBook Pro — which will definitely boast Intel’s latest Sandy Bridge architecture, and may leverage Apple’s newly-signed deal for LiquidMetal — wouldn’t come until March, but now Slide to Mac is claiming that the new MacBook Pros will come next week.

According to SlideToMac, the new models will show up sometime at the latter end of next week… possibly on a Thursday or Friday. They say that Apple will release five new models, which will include two new 13-inch versions, two new 15-inch versions and one new 17-inch version.

iSpazio confirms the five new models rumor, and even list what they say are their official models numbers, MC720 – MC725.

I’d take these rumors with a grain of salt, personally. Intel isn’t shipping out the Sandy Bridge architecture to manufacturers until February 20th, so an estimate ship date of next week for new MacBook Pros is aggressive, to say the least.
