Anticipation is high for Apple's upcoming "Back to The Mac" event at the company's headquarters in Cupertino, California, and much has been made of what Apple may be unveiling. Will it be an update to the Mac OS X operating system? Or will Apple launch new configurations of its MacBook and MacBook line of laptops? We've come up with several ideas, including what we hope to see in new Apple laptops and features we hope Apple laptops steal, er, borrow from the iPhone and iPad, as well as what we'd like to see in the new Mac OS X "Lion."

But your guess is as good as ours. So, join us on Wednesday, October 20, starting at 12:30 p.m. Eastern Time (9:30 a.m. Pacific Time) for our live, moment-to-moment coverage of Apple's latest releases.
