After much rumor, at Apple's iPad and Mac event today they've now taken the covers off the 13-Inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display.
Much like the 15-Inch MacBook Pro announced earlier this year, the 13-Inch MacBook Pro drops the optical drive, adds in two Thunderbolt and two USB 3.0 ports along with HDMI and the typicial SD card slot. You'll also find a 3.5mm headphone jack and finally, the new Magsafe 2 adapter are all in place.
To achieve a 20 percent thinner profile that brings the 13-Inch to a 0.75-inch thickness with a weight of only 3.57lbs, Apple had to sacrifice discrete graphics so internally, you'll be making use of the Ivy Bridge processors integrated HD 4000 graphics to power that 2560 x 1600 screen resolution.
The new 13-Inch MacBook Pro with Retina ships today starting at $1699 with the base model coming with a 2.5GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB of RAM along with a 128GB SSD drive and prices go up from there depending on your configuration which, can reach into over $3200 fully specced out with 2.9GHz Dual-core Intel Core i7 and a 768GB SSD drive.
