上の写真は、フォトショップ気違いの作品か、それとも本物か。とまれ、ウワサ系サイトはマックワールドの噂で持ち切りだ。今回のポイントは、マルチタッチトラックパッド。夏に紹介したものだ。10月登場というのにはだまされたが、でも何にもないよりはまし。またウワサでは、新しいサブノートブックの光学ドライブは外付けになるという。15日には Matt とぼくがハッキリさせるよ。
The above photo may be the work of a PS junkie or it may just be the real thing. In any case, the rumor mill is abuzz surrounding Macworld. This time around it’s all coming back to the purported multi-touch trackpad we told you about during the summer. Sure our sources duped us by saying it’d be out in October, but it’s better late then [sic] never. There’s also some talk going around about an external optical drive that will accompany the new sub-notebook. Matt and I will get everything sorted out on the 15th.
