"Unibody chassis and non-replaceable battery, these possible new laptop flagship of Apple?"

During the day tomorrow, at 19 Italian, Apple held as usual the Conference edzione opening of the annual Macworld Expo. The conference, as is now known, marks the latest of Apple presence at the event and will not see Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple, the stage of limestone Moscone Center.

According to a number of rumors circulated in the network connection will be used for the presentation of some new products. The most popular hypothesis, as well as for updating the Mac Mini, to the launch of the new MacBook Pro laptop with 17-inch Unibody chassis, which will accompany them to the model presented in the course of the past month of October.

One item in particular concerns the portable "flagship" of Apple MacBook Pro 17 is equipped with non-replaceable battery (similar to what happens with your MacBook Air) that could allow a more flexible implementation by Apple and increased autonomy, perhaps using some Technologies recently designed by third parties. According to some, also, the new MacBook Pro 17 could be equipped with Quad Core processors.

Among other items of the corridor is the possibility of updated iMac line of systems with the adoption, in this case, the recent GPU NVIDIA mobile home, and perhaps the transition to the Mac Pro desktop systems to the new Core architecture Intel i7.

non-replaceable battery that may be foolery! I do not believe in even if I see him! ok apple that is capable of everything but not until this point .... steps to the air that is just so much detail and enough, but on a normal notebook have fixed the battery is absurd! Needing to go to the service center to change it will reveal its reality.

"which could enable more flexible implementation by Apple and increased autonomy"

and an incredible amount of trouble for users, which should lead their Macbook assistance for any problem relating to it.

There is even the possibility of carrying an extra battery (which would, by purchasing a professional product) or replace it with a longer duration.

Among other things, the battery is not one of the things which guarantee lasts less?

Now that I think I remember a news not long ago where there was written that the power supply apple were "sub" (which should also apply to other brands ..... even though I had never heard ) and in the absence of the battery performance of the computer were deliberately limited and is always advised to leave the battery inserted! I found this battery sets solve the problem, saving even more processors and on also to change the battery! its phenomena.

It seems that the battery is not replaceable is justified by the fact that the new batteries will BostonPower Sonata, known charge cycles with more than 1,000 times (against 150), significantly more time and recharge time of 30 minutes for 80% .. . Obviously, for those not just the nominal duration of the battery and that will replace it during the working day may not do so.

Besides Apple, HP also is using BostonPower batteries in laptop lineup, giving pure 3-year warranty on them.
