New MacBook Air and MacBook Pro to show up at WWDC 2013?

We’ve already heard one slightly less than sound prediction from our favorite analyst, Ming-Chi Kuo of KGI Securities. And, while his prediction of a low-cost iPad mini is suspect, his past history is still pretty good. So, we’ll cut him some slack and pretend that one never happened for now. His note to investors also points to some exciting new…

Rumor: MacBook Air with Retina and fresh iPad coming in 2013

Another week, and more Apple flavored rumors to throw on the pile. The latest, courtesy of EMS One (via Macotakara) details Cupertino’s plans to bring the Retina resolution displays to its super-slim notebook range. And – as with most rumors – should be taken with a healthy dosage of salt. Although it’s probable that Apple is looking in to boosting the…

MacBook Pro and MacBook Air lineups refreshed, prices dropped

Apple has just announced a newly refreshed range of MacBooks via press release. It’s far from a new product, but it has some new prices and specs (for some). The 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina now costs a measly still expensive $1,499 for the base model ($200 off) and dropped the higher end model to $1,699 ($300 off). They’ve had some boosted…

Was Mr. Gates The Grinch to his kids’ Christmas this year?

Bill Gates created a decent amount of hatred and anger towards him over the holiday season this year. Not because of Microsoft itself or indeed any of his business endeavors. No, everyone is so annoyed with Mr. Gates because of the gifts he gave to his kids for Christmas this year. Perhaps a petty spark for an argument, but it does raise a good question…

The SFBags CitySlicker 13″ MacBook Air Case – TiP Review

I’m going to be as up front and honest as possible now, my name is David and I have a problem collecting messenger bags. As of last count, I have a collection of almost 20, well 21 thanks to a recent addition from the folks at SFBags — thankfully, the “CitySlicker” is one of my new favorites. Honestly, I am hard pressed to say anything negative about…

Mac App Store updates include “Retina Graphics”

Retina display on a Mac? Crazy right? Considering how much power and processing juice it would need to run it, it seems a slightly far fetched idea. Thinking MacBooks for a second, can you imagine the size the battery would need to be in order to keep a 15″ Retina display going for 7 hours? But, then again, this is Apple we’re talking about. A company well…

Rumor: Entire Mac lineup to be updated at WWDC 2012

During WWDC 2011, the focus was all hardware. Steve Jobs made it clear that WWDC was going to be used to show off updated software. However, it is looking more likely that Apple is planning to release some epic Mac hardware. Apple may even refresh the entire Mac line-up, from the MacBook Air, all the way up to the Mac Pro. Of course, the MacBook Air…

$799 MacBook Air coming later this year?

It’s amazing how many times we read rumors about Apple releasing a smaller, cheaper model of a popular product “in Q3 of this year.” Throughout 2011 the iPhone 4S speculation was that it would be a new, cheaper alternative to the iPhone 5 that never materialized. We heard the same of the iPad this year. Prior to the new iPad’s launch, there was all…
