Apple Rumors, Brand New!

As I was expecting, last year's Apple rumors got refreshed as soon as everyone managed to wake up after the New Year night, but I wouldn't stumble into this topics once again just to tell you same things once again. After all, previous rumors were saying that Apple will release some NVIDIA-based Macs, but no accurate details were available. Now, we're still on the unofficial side of the story, but we have plenty of details about these Apple rumors, so let's take a look at them, shall we?

The source of the latest news regarding what Apple could come up with this week is AppleInsider, and they just managed to found out that the Cupertino-based company will release "a 17-inch MacBook Pro with a fixed internal battery and a new version of the Mac mini, both of which will feature chipsets from NVIDIA" in just a few days, "as early as Tuesday."

Another story brings really interesting news, since even a small chance of seeing a 28-inch Mac these days makes me shiver. Wow, so could it be true? That remains to be seen, of course, so until we get to see the new iMacs, Mac mini and Mac Pro showing up, all we can do is hope that Apple finally decided to play it big. After all, size seems to really matter these days, with LCD monitors becoming larger with each month, and since the prices are going down... why not?

The new technical details part of these Apple rumors say that the new Macs will use the NVIDIA MCP79 (GeForce 9400M) chipset, and a high-end MacBook Pro version is expected to use the powerful 9800M graphics chipset. Even more, the 28-inch version I mentioned above could use Intel's X58 chipset, working together with a Nehalem-based processor, although details are quite sketchy at this time.

These being said, I think tomorrow's keynote may reveal a lot more than these last-minute Apple rumors, so...get ready for the MacWorld 2009 keynote!
