More "proof" from MacRumors.com that updated iMac and Mac Pro models
are NOT part of this week's event ...


    Apple Registers Three New Macs in Eurasia Ahead 
    of Thursday's 'Hello Again' Event 
    ----------------------------------------------- 
    Just three days before Apple's "Hello Again" event,  
    where it is widely expected to announce new Macs,  
    French website Consomac has discovered a new  
    Russian-language regulatory filing, in the Eurasian  
    Economic Commission database, that points towards  
    at least three new models running macOS Sierra  
    launching soon.
 
    The three new Macs, identified only with model  
    numbers A1706, A1707, A1708, are likely to be new  
    13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Pros alongside a new  
    13-inch MacBook, which could be a refreshed Air  
    model, based on previous reports. However, adding  
    confusion to the mix is the consecutive sequence  
    of the model numbers.
 
    The filing, published today, satisfies Russia's  
    requirement for companies to register all products  
    containing encryption and/or cryptographic tools.
 
    Over the weekend, KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi  
    Kuo said he believes the highlight of Apple's event  
    on Thursday will be a redesigned MacBook Pro in  
    both 13-inch and 15-inch sizes, adopting an OLED  
    touch bar and Touch ID sensor, USB-C with  
    Thunderbolt 3, and the same butterfly keyboard  
    design introduced on the MacBook in 2015.
 
    The all-new MacBook Pro is also expected to have  
    faster Intel Skylake processors and faster graphics,  
    possibly including the option of AMD "Polaris"  
    graphics on higher-end models. Kuo said Apple will  
    offer a new option of 2TB SSD storage, while it or  
    a third-party supplier will release a MagSafe-like  
    USB-C charging adapter.
 
    The new 13-inch MacBook, meanwhile, is likely to be  
    a refreshed MacBook Air, which would align with  
    other rumors claiming that only the 13-inch MacBook  
    Air will be seeing an update with new USB-C ports.  
    However, there is an outside chance the model could  
    be a slightly larger version of the current 12-inch  
    MacBook.
 
    The loosely translated filing refers to the Macs as  
    "portable personal computers," effectively ruling  
    out the iMac and Mac Pro.




The three consecutive model numbers may simply be different
configurations of MacBook Pro models, so the MacBook / MacBook Air
could also not be making an appearance / announcement at the event ...
unless, potentially, it isn't actually shipping until a little later.
