Wait time for the MacBook Pro Retina reduced Wait time for the MacBook Pro Retina reduced(0)

Those who want to purchase a Retina MacBook Pro now don’t have to wait as long. The shipping time for the new Mac book pro has come down to only 1 to 2 weeks according to Apple’s website. Previously the wait time on shipping had been estimated at 2 to 3 weeks. However that went up to a month just weeks after the release of the Mac Book Pro but then went back down to 3 weeks before returning to 2 to 3 weeks. The 1 to 2 week wait time seems to be standard across the globe with the company giving the same estimate in Europe, Asia and Oceania. The reason for the drop is likely due to a drop in demand. When the notebook was first released demand outstripped supply which led to the greater wait times than usual. Now however that the computer has become less popular which means a shorter wait time for eager customers. In other words those who do still want the retina MacBook pro won’t have to wait as long. They will however still have to face a hefty price with the lowest aversion selling for $2200 and the more expensive version selling for $2800.

13″ MacBook Pro with Retina Display 13″ MacBook Pro with Retina Display(0)

At the recent WWDC event, Apple unveiled and released the 15″ MacBook Pro with a Retina display included. The company also release an upgrade to its 13″ MacBook Pro lineup, however this upgrade lacked the Retina update. This may soon change according to some speculation.

The rumor comes from KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo and suggests that Apple will release the Retina 13“ Pros in early October. The analyst was on point in certain previous rumors such.

Apple may be currently in the process of testing the display in 13″ MacBo0k Pros. A ”MacBookPro1O.2” was discovered for the battery utility app “Min/’BatteryLogger” that lists its resulting database.

It will be a great time to purchase any Apple product when every device and Mac across the board ships with a Retina display.

Until that day comes, we must gauge the features we want today vs waiting for Apple add the Retina in each device and Mac.

 

Notebook PC extinction by 2016 Notebook PC extinction by 2016(0)

With the advent of technology nowadays, it is very rampant that from the ancient and huge mainframe computers we once used and admired, now transcend into smaller and more efficient computers. Indeed, “the smaller the better” has become a global trend.

I could still remember when we become so proud to have desktop computers and become so efficient in terms of the basic typing and printing stuff. But as laptops emerged, then notebooks then now tablets and iPads, looks like a new era has evolved.

In an article I stumble upon in Yahoo News, “tablet computers are expected to overtake notebook PCs by 2016 as consumers shift to newer devices like the Apple iPad”. A survey was conducted by the research firm NPD basing on the overall shipments of these computers.

It was estimated that the mobile PC and tablet shipment will enormously increase from 347 million in 2012 to more than 809 million by 2017. Look at that increase! It is over 230% increase in the growth sales. Apparently the increase in the sales was made possible by the adoption of mobile PC and tablets in the daily activities in North America, Japan and Western Europe, where first world countries are located.

Thus, it is a difficult competition for other companies since in the recent survey, Apple’s iPad is still the top grossing tablet in the market with 62.8% of sales and has been followed by Samsung with 7.5%. It looks like, companies are pushing themselves beyond what computers are capable, engineers have been fitting a lot of features and innovations into those tiny little chips and consumers are all over praising the convenience and luxury of carrying a virtual assistant in their pocket.

Ultrabooks, windows 8 set to dominate computex Ultrabooks, windows 8 set to dominate computex(1)

June is fast approaching, which means the 32nd outing of the world’s second largest computer tradeshow, Computex, running from the 5th until the 9th of June. Last year’s show kicked off Intel’s Ultrabook push. This year we could not see in production models from ASUS, Acer, MSI, Gigabyte, and Samsung, but also new products designed to take advantage of Ivy Bridge processors.


There is also going to be a lot of hype around handhelds with Windows 8 set to play a big part in proceedings. Computex should be the first time that we see alot of Windows 8 tablets being shown off, with Microsoft heavily involved in both its own stand and those of other manufacturers of Windows 8 devices. It isn’t just a Windows focus, with promises that there will also be a whole pile of Android devices on show.
As always, we’ll be on the show floor at Computex come June, doing our best to cover the latest and greatest products being shown. With products like Ivy Bridge and Windows 8 set to dominate computing this year, it should be one of the most exiting shows for some time.
