Super Bowl XLIV just came to an end with an impressive victory for the Saints against the Colts – something which I didn’t want. Regardless of the game itself, the much anticipated advertisements of the Super Bowl didn’t deliver this year. The tech advertisements were few, being only for the Motorola DEVOUR, GoDaddy, Intel, Google, and Vizio. Most of the other advertises were for beer, chips, or some other random stuff (shoes?).

Over at Geekbench, an interesting benchmark recently popped up for an unreleased MacBook Pro (model 6,1) running a dual core Core i7 humming along at 2.66Ghz. Interesting? So is the operating system, which isn’t the current build of Snow Leopard, 10C540. Other results worthy enough to mention are that it’s running 4GB RAM and a final score of 5260, which makes current generation MacBook Pros seem like slugs – ranging in scores from 3500 to 4200 on the Geekbench tests. But are these authentic?

Considering that the security over at the Apple campus is so tight, we doubt that these are genuine results, and could’ve been done with some intricate hackintosh or that someone would’ve been dumb enough to post their results online for the whole world to see. But until they’re released, you can dream into the stars with Apple rumors, no?
