fyi
Thanks Ernest. The next group of Macs will (eventually) use Ivy Bridge. This Acer W700 tablet may cook along nicely, but could wind up having lousy battery life and a too-high price.

[snip] Bloomberg confirms a report from earlier today that Apple is preparing to release thinner MacBook Pro models with Retina displays. The models are to be released at Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference on June 11 and will also include flash memory to “cut startup times and extend battery life”. The report is likely a “controlled leak”, something that Apple PR has been known to do in the past to share product details. [/snip]
[snip] An alternative explanation relates to claims put forth late last week by KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who indicated that a thinner, Retina-capable Mac notebook would appear as a third member of the MacBook family with Apple continuing to offer the existing MacBook Pro alongside the new model for the time being. In that case, these leaked photos could represent the updated version of the current MacBook Pro with the new notebook still remaining under wraps. [/snip]
