Retina 13-inch MacBook Pro rumored to start at $1,699
The rumored 13-inch version of Apple's MacBook Pro with a Retina Display will cost some $500 more than Apple's existing, non-Retina 13-inch model, according to a new report. Citing "wholesale prices," 9to5Mac says the 13-inch model of the notebook will start at $1,699 when it goes on sale next week. That's $500 less than the entry-level version of Apple's 15-inch model with a Retina Display, but also $500 more than the entry-level 13-incher on the non-Retina side.Related stories13-inch Retina MacBook Pro on track, says analyst13-inch Retina MacBook Pro displays in productionCNET Review: 15-inch MacBook Pro w/Retina DisplayApple, of course, has not announced the smaller version of the Retina-equipped Pro, but its arrival has been expected for this fall.
