If they are both Retina, then the weight difference is the biggest deal. Reducing the screen size from 13" to 12" would let them make it significantly lighter than the MacBook Pro.
- pulmo 13y agoRight. And people will ask themselves ... why have I paid more for a heavier notebook?
- dagw 13y agoI imagine that a 12" retina MBA will mean the death of the 13" MBP. I further imagine that Apple is perfectly OK with that.
- XorNot 13y agoI'm really struggling to imagine customers are going to be ok with that. Just because a smallish form factor proved propular doesn't mean you're not suddenly going to find a size which is a dealbreaker. 12" is tiny and doesn't really improve portability for a laptop-like device (which goes in a backpack).
