Somewhat expectedly, Gruber disagrees.

I have to agree with Grannell here; unless the Pro line becomes something radically different under the hood, or turns into the ever-elusive “Mac Tablet”, there’s going to be little difference between the MacBook and the MacBook Pro with the exception of screen size and video card. That’s not enough of a reason to have a professional lineup.

Mid-October is going to be quite interesting, I can’t wait to see what Apple has in store. Particularly since my PowerBook has been sold and I need a new laptop while on the road. How else am I supposed to update from the track in North Carolina this weekend?!
