Compounding the recent stock shortages of Apple’s MacBook Air, it seems Cupertino’s not-quite-so-airtight seal has leaked a few new model numbers. They point to either a refreshed MacBook Air or MacBook Pro with retina display waiting in the wings for WWDC.
The four SKUs have been dug up by the often-reliable 9to5Mac, with two pairs of variants, probably denoting two different spec levels for two separate screen sizes. According to rumours, stock of both the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro with retina display is running out globally too, which normally forecasts an imminent change.
Although this is purely rumour and speculation at this point, it looks like WWDC will hold much more than just Jony Ive’s iOS7. Those Haswell chips being spat out in all the new Windows ultrabooks at Computexsure look tasty. Let’s hope Apple pushes the boat out without ramping up the prices. [9to5Mac]
