So there's now a continuum of prices for the 13-inch MacBook line in $100 increments: In October Apple refreshed the Retina MacBook Pro line with Haswell microprocessors, faster Wi-Fi, some reconfiguration and a lower price for the 13-inch model - it was $1,499, but now it's $1,299 (albeit with half the storage capacity as last year's base model). Week in and week out, that old, chunky, heavy and slower 13-inch MacBook Pro continues to sell well. So they listen with open minds about the MacBook Air, the MacBook Pro, and the Retina MacBook Pro, trying to understand the differences in price, features and functionality. Now, many people who I talk with aren't that familiar with the Mac product line. So it's also no surprise that the majority of people walking in the door who are shopping for a new computer want to compare the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro. Laptops consistently outsell desktop machines - no surprise there, that's been the industry trend for years.
