I too think Apple won't go back to the simple "Macbook" name. The "Air" and "Pro" extensions make more sense from marketing point of view. At least for now.
Instead of getting a regular Macbook the customer is getting:
- Air - which underlines its slimness and ligthness ergo its most sexy charakterystyki
or
- Pro - which has a "premium" appeal.
Although I admit that after the whole Macbook Pro line up gets Retina displays then it would make sense to cut the Air from Macbook Air since the whole notebook lineup would ba basically "air" in terms of design. Then such a move would've made sense since they would probably want to position the Retina macbooks as more premium and push more units of pricier "Pro Retinas" than cheaper "Airs".
