I can't help, but introducing "a hybrid between the current MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models" does not sound like Apple. I think they are gonna merge the two categories, like they did with the MacBook and MacBook Pro a few years ago...
We also predict Apple will roll out a fully new MacBook model in early 3Q12, boasting strong performance and easy carryability by combining the advantages of MacBook Air and MacBook Pro.
While adding new products, Apple is likely to stop making the 17" MacBook Pro this year due to falling shipments,
in order to maintain a lean product line strategy.
What's tuesday? Anything special happening?
So the economy is strong enough to support all the people who are paying at least $700 more for a 17-inch than a 15-inch.
Because we like having to ability to burn CD's without having to buy an external drive. We have an all-in-one.
We forecast Apple will sell 5.32mn units of the Mac series (up 28.5% QoQ and 35.2% YoY) in 2Q12, making it the main growth driver.

You wont see that big difference compareing a retina 15' with a actual 17' am sure
1. I like being able to put in DVD'sSo are people buying the 13" MBP just for the word "Pro"?
This guy has no idea what he is talking about. The Macbook Pro line is the flagship line of professional products. You cannot have the best laptops in the world and not have a 17" option.
I think the 11" Macbook Air and the rumored smaller iPad might be a response to consumer wants/desires, yeah?Apple has been accelerating its failure rate of customer demanded product deliveries. Perhaps the market will also decrease the forgiveness factor and will move to alternative solutions to a degree where the golden boy will have to work just a bit harder and put its arrogance aside.[...]
