Rumored Apple iPad 3 might not be their last gadget before summer : Macbook Pro coming

In addition to the iPad 3 reports have also hinted at a possible release of a new version of the MacBook Pro by the coming quarter or sometime between April and June. This version of the MacBook Pro will reportedly feature a Retina display as well.”

Please, planetinsane let it be true.

I myself don’t look to buy a new Macbook Pro, should it come this summer, but I know of a few people who’d update. Too bad the retina display sounds quite unlikely. Think about it, that would mean a 2560 x 1440 display in a 13” Macbook Pro.

I wish it was true, but it isn’t very likely.

A lighter body, no optical drive on the other hand looks not only plausible, but probable.

Liliputing reports that Acer has released a decent looking nettop.

What’s a nettop you might ask? It’s like a small netbook strong just enough to play hd video and browse the net.

It’s interesting to see that Intel has not gobbled all the nettop/netbook market and AMD chips have something to do with it, still.
