Apple Notebook Updates on October 14th? 120GB MacBook Air HDD?

Apple's "Let's Rock" media event yesterday refreshed their entire iPod line. When asked about the lack of Mac news in an interview, Jobs pointed out it was a music focused event. Many readers, however, are anxiously awaiting overdue notebook revisions that have been rumored.

DaringFireball now claims that Apple will be releasing new notebooks on October 14th according to sources "familiar with Apple's hardware plans." This timeframe fits into recent expectations of a more staggered release, and recent hints to resellers that notebook refreshes would have to wait until October.

While both the MacBook and MacBook Pro are overdue for revisions, the MacBook Air has also been rumored to see imminent updates. Besides new versions of the MacBook Air's custom Intel processor, Apple now has access to upgraded miniature hard drives for use in the slim laptop.

The new 120GB iPod Classic shares the same single-platter hard drive form factor that is also used in the MacBook Air. Prior to the availability of the 120GB part, the MacBook Air had been limited to a maximum hard drive size of 80GB. The MacBook Air should now be able to accommodate the higher 120GB hard drive size.

october 14th is only a month away

yep, just over a month. can't wait to see the new macbooks!

me either, in aluminum

yeah, and new macbook pros

oh no. this isnt good....just another computer that you will want.

the macbooks need an update big time

yeah i know, it's been a long time

well hopefully they'll come in a month

i hope so, i can't wait to see a new mac to be released

well, i think they will just be updated

well that's what i mean, it's still going to be great

well i guess they do need an update...it has been a while, but it will only make you want another computer and that is the bad part.

hopefully both the macbooks and macbook pros will get more than just memory or hard drive updates

yeah i guess thats good then. i wonder if they will change the appearance of it.

that's what i'm hoping for. but usually if it's big changes, then they do it at a keynote

oh yeah, that would make sense. i guess you never know though.

yeah. i just dont see them doing a big update without a keynote. but maybe they will

maybe, but i agree w/you

well, i sure hope that something is released next month.

yeah i guess its about time for them

well, we haven't had any mac updates in quite a while now

can't wait for October 14th!

it's getting closer!

yep, it wont be long. thats my roommate's birthday.....and then my birthday is 11 days later
