Both 9to5Mac and AppleInsider are reporting on rumors that a 17-inch, unibody MacBook Pro will debut at this week's Macworld Expo. Most interesting is the rumor about the machine's battery.Specifically, the alleged laptop's battery would be non-removable, very slim (consider the MacBook Air's battery) and able to run "...much longer" than the current model. The announcement of a new 17 inch MacBook Pro wouldn't be a very big surprise, but a non-removable battery would. People like removable batteries for obvious reasons.Mike Rose guessed that we'd see a new 17 inch laptop when we all listed our predictions. We'll all see what happens in just a couple of days.For full Macworld Expo coverage, bookmark the TUAW Macworld Expo 2009 landing page.[Via Engadget]TUAWRumor: Unibody 17 inch MacBook Pro originally appeared on The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW) on Sun, 04 Jan 2009 21:00:00 EST.
