MacWorld is almost here and there is definitely less flurrying rumors about what Apple May do than usual. A rumor emerging countries has to do with updating the 17-inch MacBook Pro. The biggest MacBook was the only model not been updated in the past year and it is no surprise that Apple plans to proceed with the Unibody of all the new MacBooks. What is surprising is the rumor that this model has a non-replaceable battery a la the MacBook Air
I can not believe this is true as the only reason the Air has a fixed battery is due to lack of space. That is certainly not true of the large 17-inch I can not believe that Apple would be the ability to extend battery life away from the mobile workers by fixing the battery in place as the iPhone. The rumor says that Apple is using a new super-battery technology, which last much longer than in the other MacBooks. Even so, I will just say a word for the solid battery rumor, it should come to pass: FAIL.
