New iMac and MacBook Pro (fortunately) void of Intel branding

AdJab was the first to notice something we've all been worrying about since the day Jobs announced the switch to Intel chips: Intel branding on the new Macs, or more specifically: the lack therof. After checking the product sites for the new iMac and MacBook Pro and confirming with a couple of our on-site bloggers, it's official: the new Macs weren't marred by any of the typical stickers and other silly marketing gobbly gook that our PC counterparts are victims of. So you lucky bunch who are placing orders right now for zippy new Intel-infused Macs, rest assured: they're still beautiful and sticker-free.

btw - CNet confirmed that Apple will not be taking part in the Intel Inside program.

Kinda nice to see someone say "You know what, we actually don't need an extra 30 cents per laptop. Thanks, though."

Stickers can be removed. I wanna know what the start up sound is!

Well, there's still the giant apple on the back of the display, but that's not marketing, not at all...

Seriously, there are more important things than having to remove a couple of stickers.
