A report relating to the MacBook redesign has surfaced over at AppleInsider. Apparently, the updated MacBooks and MacBook Pros will feature shiney, new aluminum-based exteriors - pretty much like the MacBook Air and iMac. Other rumours revolve around ports on the new MacBook; apparently, the Firewire 400 and DVI-I ports are being replaced by Firewire 800 and Mini-DVI.

To some of you this might seem a great change but it certainly gives Apple’s range of laptops a nice uniform look - that should force hardcore MacBook users to look twice before sneering at your ‘inferior’ model!

Unfortunately there’s no news on a launch date although rumours suggest 14 October as a possible date. Time to twiddle my thumbs - for about 3 weeks!
