The pre-Macworld 2009 rumors continue to fester with new rumors that not only will Macworld see the arrival of a unibody aluminum 17-inch MacBook Pro to go alongside the 15-inch MacBook Pro that was released at Apple's special notebook event back in October, but that this new MacBook Pro would come without a user-removable battery, much like the MacBook Air. If this proves to be true, then road warriors used to charging up a second battery for use on those long cross-country flights are going to be very upset when the announcements are finally made. Obsessable predicted that there will be a new unibody MacBook Pro, but we're hoping this new twist to the rumor proves to be false.
