No blogging? That’s right. Working on a new project.

So we’ve all heard about Lego StarWars, Lego Indiana Jones and soon to come Lego Batman right? Well here’s a few old lego games that you’ve probably never seen yet..

Lego Bionic Commando

Lego Castlevania

Lego Contra

Lego Duckhunt

Lego Excite Bikes

Lego Metal Gear

Lego Mortal Kombat

A bit off-topic, but I just had to sssssssshare this.

If you want to see the rest of the movie, click here. [NSFW].

It seems the long awaited Macbook Pro line is finally going to get an update! Browsing the Macrumors forum, I came across this picture, which was published on a Chinese Apple blog. A reader in the forums was kind enough to do a rough translation of the post.

Two days ago my good friend Ariel brought over two pictures.
These are the ones we have been eyeing for quite some time…

They are very reliable plans.

If you think that the Macbook Air feels like a dustpan and not like a ‘pro’ machine, wait a bit.

This summer don’t participate in the ‘Back-to-School’ event, [I believe the gist of this sentence is to encourage the reader not to buy an MBP in the summer. The literal translation is: "this summer don't buy student-special-case". I just guessed that "student-special-case" is probably some promotion, i.e: Apple-Back-To-School. I dunno if they have that in Taiwan]
The newest Macbook Pro is coming out…

The first small part I want to reveal to everyone is that
the Apple logo on the top case will no longer have a backlight.
Before, the ‘apple’ on the top case had a special glowing shine to it.
This recent version of the Apple Logo
is very similar to the Apple logo on everyone’s iPhone or iMac.
It’s not dazzling anymore.

This time around, the outside of the MBP is very similar to the MBA and iPhone 3G:
They all have adopted new designs.
Therefore, professionals and [other types of people],
should stop making orders for MBPs. [I am not 100% about this line, it is an educated guess]
I wait for you to get your new MBPs and congratulate me [presumably, the blogger wants recognition for leaking this].

Looking at the bottom casing of the prototype photographs,
you might think it’s strange that the measurements do not match up with the top casing.
This is intentional, because
the Macbook Pro’s battery this time around is a large, long shape. [rectangle(?)]
Not like the properly shaped square from before.
Regarding the keyboard, it is a very similar design to the MBA.

Actually, I think that the new MBP is not surprisingly gorgeous.
If you still want to know more predictions and details, (such as front side plans)
remember that other than reading offical Apple news,
you should also frequently read my unprofessional [I think he means that he's not getting paid for it, so, 'unofficial' would probably be a better word choice] blog.
