Depending on the price, I could actually be interested in this one.
That would be depressing unless they are actually going to put a real GPU in there. That would be a lot of pixels for the HD4000 to deal with and I have doubts on whether it can provide a quality experience.
Very true...unless there was some sort of massive advancement with integrated graphics. It would certainly be the first time a 13" MBP came with a dedicated gpu.
Adding a dedicated GPU to a Retina 13" MBP will jack the price up even more....
If they put a dedicated GPU in it I'm sold. I would love to have something that combined the best of the 15in MBP and the MBA in the smaller format.
Anyone know what resolution this 13" might have? The new 15" is already incredibly taxing on the GPU. I don't even want to know what the experience might be like with integrated graphics.
I wonder who writes the drivers for the GPU for OSX - if it's Apple or Intel when it comes to the HD4000 - if it's Intel that might even be part of the problem since they've never been the best at creating high quality GPU drivers.
INCOMING:
$1,799 baseline 13" MacBook Pro.
Anyone have any stats to see if these things are actually selling? Honestly, for the price, I would rather have a 1080p screen and a much better GPU. It's also disappointing that they don't allow matte screens. I mean, only photographers and video editors/whatnot are going to really need the crazy resolution...and there is no matte screen option.
Pretty disappointing of Apple, but they'll learn once their sales drop.
My understanding is it's a joint effort but primarily driven by Intel. Which makes sense since they're pushing their new on board GPU chipsets to the limit.
No, no. The retina 13" MBP.Are you talking Non Retnia MBP? If so your price is way high. 13" starts at $1,199.00.
