MacBook Pro 2012 release date is expected on June 11. While retina display, USB 3.0 are some of the new features in the new Macbook Pro

MacBook Pro 2012 rumors seem to be everywhere right now. There is so much interest in the next generation MacBook Pro 2012 that it seems people are waiting for it as much as they were waiting for Apple’s iPhone or iPad. There are so many speculations about the Apple laptops that it seems that it will be the best thing to have happened to the MacBook in its entire history.

Now there are credible reports that the new MacBook Pro will be a lot thinner, more powerful and better looking than its existing versions. And this very much improved version will be unveiled during the forthcoming World Wide Developers Conference (WWDC).

A leading Taiwanese technology blog Digitimes says that the new MacBook Pro is going to come with the same retina display that is now part of iPhones and iPads. Its report suggests that new Retina Display MacBook Pro lineup is expected to set off “a new round of competition for panel specifications in the notebook industry.” A resolution of 2,880 by 1,800 would be exactly twice that of the 1,440-by-900 display currently found on the 15-inch MacBook Pro. So the excitement among Macbook Pro fans is not without any reason.

Retina display gives one of the best display qualities in the world. Retina display’s pixel density is so high that users’ eyes are unable to distinguish individual pixels. Which means text in books, web pages, and email is crisp at any size and images too are very sharp. The Digitimes report while talking about it says, “While the prevailing MacBook Models have display resolutions from 1680 by 1050 to 1280 by 800, the ultra-high resolution for the new MacBook Pro will further differentiate Apple’s products from other brands”.

Meanwhile another leading Apple blog site 9to5Mac says that the new MacBook Pro 2012 would be thinner than the existing versions. Besides another report suggests that Cupertino based tech giant Apple will rely on a solid state drive for booting.

Another important feature in the new MacBook Pro will be its ability to support USB 3.0 due to the fact that Intel Ivy Bridge is a lot better platform that its previous version. A report suggests that the MacBook Pro 2012 is going to have at least 3 USB 3.0 ports.

To be precise, the Cupertino based Apple hasn’t made any significant changes in its MacBook Pro. The last time that the company had a total design touchup for MacBook Pro was in the year 2008. So the much needed improvement in MacBook Pro 2012 is no more just a rumor. It is a certainty and Apple is set to unveil this new and more powerful machine on 11th June 2012.

    This is a conspiracy against the power of the peasants. The imperialist forces of Wapple, Hoogle and Microhard will be defeated by the communist brotherhood. Wacbook is a tool of the rich to keep the peasants oppressed. Hail Marx! By the power of the chalkboard.
