Yeah, I'm thinking $999 for a Core Solo MacBook, $1,299 for a Core Duo one. Sorry.

Plus, the Darwin kernel and many other subsystems are all based on open-source technologies, meaning that Apple gets the benefit of that work for free. |

Where will Apple profit if it cuts back its profit margins on hardware? Final Cut and iWork (and others) aren't exactly big sellers and will not earn enough to both recoup their own development costs as well as the development costs of the OS and the hardware. Quote:

Forgive me if this has been asked a million times already but reading these posts with so many replies gets me in a daze sometimes and I lose track of whats going on......If the Macbook really does come out this Tuesday is it likely that it will replace the need for a 12" MacBook Pro as well or do you folks think that they will still produce one?

My guess: probably not. For one, a 12" MacBook Pro would have a smaller screen than the "consumer" (supposed) 13" MacBook model. Would a pro notebook have a smaller screen than its younger sibling?
And for another--and presuming there may be multiple models of MacBook produced--the high end MB model may be consistant with the "low end," pro-aimed 12" MBP. |
