Apple’s introductory Macbook Pro with Retina display now comes with 128GB SSD memory and as of today will cost $1,649. The higher end model now features a new 2.6GHz processor and 256GB SSD for $1,849.
The stock 15 inch Retina MacBook Pro will have more powerful 2.4GHz processor, while the top of the line variant will come with a 2.7GHz quad core processor, 16GB of RAM and a $3,199 price tag.
The 13 inch MacBook Air will now come with 256GB SSD memory and will retail for $1,549.
Observes claim the price drops are a response to the Australian government’s IT pricing inquiry, where tech leviathans are charging more for the same products in Australia than they do in other countries such as the US. However, the pricing of Apple’s MacBook’s dropped accordingly in the US too.
