What’s with the Elevator reference? I’ve seen it everywhere in the past few days, but must have missed the first occurence.
Super Dave,
Look at this page under “iHome”. Those pictures of a Fake apple product where said to be taken in the elevator of an apple event.

Are you kidding! Those kinds of images are as fake as they can be! The number one way to spot any kind of fake Apple image is to first ask yourself if any parts of the new image looks like or reminds you of the edges of any product Apple currently sells or have sold. Universally, you’ll find this is always, always, true. In the above image, for example, a person only used the image of the outline of Apple’s former Apple Cinema display and cloned it. Voila! The new video ipod. Fake, Fake, Fake. Nothing to see here, folks. Move on. 
iHome photos:
1. Create image of new product’s sides and logo in Photoshop/Illustrator.
2. Print
3. Tape printed pages onto an existing laptop or a box.
4. Take pictures of product
5. Take pictures into Photoshop and clean up evidence, like the edge of the printed paper taped to the box
The only problem is they didn’t get rid of all of the edges of paper.

Which means if MacBook Pro photos leaked out early, you’d dismiss them as fake?

Sometimes you’ve got to admire the work of such hoaxes. I’m sure alot of effort goes into it haha.
1.
Could it be any more obvious that this is a fake? Just look at the corners - it looks like the test pattern was sloppily laid on top of the device (whatever it is).
