Neither Apple fail or premature anything.
It's simply a picture used as a general representation.
Think about the time you ever go to a fast food restaurant. You look up at a picture that represents what you want to eat. Now when you actually open your fun filled wrapper of food, does it EVER look like the picture you see?
It is a fail... Apple claims that Flash is not a big deal but the sites they pick to show tend to have flash... Kinda bad form.
I doubt it's a leak, I doubt it's intentional... It's just a Fail. How quick was everyone to jump on the "Microsoft Office Photoshop Fail," but they can't admit that Apple employees do the same? The Windows boards will LOVE this!
