This is likely the only MacBook Pro update we'll see in 2014. The "Better" 15" MacBook Pro configuration is what I'd recommend for Jeffrey, et al. Wanting a 15" option (the 13" should be the MacBook Air config we ordered for Mervin still). 15-inch: 2.5GHz with Retina display 2.5GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 Turbo Boost up to 3.7GHz 16GB 1600MHz memory 512GB PCIe-based flash storage I Intel Iris Pro Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M with 2GB GDDRS memory Built-in battery (8 hours)2 $2,499.00 MacRumors Apple Launches Retina MacBook Pros with Faster Haswell Processors, More RAM Standard EFTA00994378 As indicated over the weekend and yesterday,, Apple today launch refreshed 13-inch and 15-inch Retina MacBook Pros.The new notebooks feature faster versions of Intel's Haswell processors, as all 13-inch models now come with 8GB of RAM standard while all 15-inch models now feature 16GB of RAM. c lfiew_rmbps_mid_2014 New models include: 13-inch: - $1299: 2.6 GHz dual-core i5 processor, 8GB RAM, 128GB of flash storage - $1499: 2.6 GHz dual-core i5 processor, 8GB RAM, 256GB of flash storage - $1799: 2.8 GHz dual-core i7 processor, 8 GB of RAM, 512GB of flash storage 15-inch: - $1999: 2.2 GHz quad-core i7 processor, 16GB of RAM, 256GB of flash storage - $2599: 2.5 GHz quad-core i7 processor, 16GB of RAM, 512GB of flash storage The minor refresh is primarily a stopgap measure until Apple can launch a more significant update to its Retina MacBook Pro line once Intel's next-generation Broadwell processors hit the market. Broadwell chips appropriate for the MacBook Pro may however not arrive until mid-2015. Apple is also rumored to be working on a 12-inch Retina MacBook for 2015 which is said to feature an ultrathin chassis, a fan-less cooling system and a revamped trackpad. Apple's refreshed line of Retina MacBook Pros are available today through the company's various retail location and online store, with all standard configurations showing a shipping avaliability of "within 24 hours." The new notebooks will also be a part of Apple's back-to-school program which gives qualified educational purchasers an Apple Store gift card of S100 with the purchase of a new Mac.
