Agentless Backup is Not a Myth
Today's Cupertinian rumeur du jour: a 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display will share the stage at next week's introduction of the much-anticipated iPad mini – or whatever that shrunken fondleslab may be dubbed.
That is, of course, if there really is an event, as reported [1], on October 23 to introduce a svelter sibling of Apple's iPad. And if there really is, of course, a 7.85-inch iPad in the works.
The report of a smaller version of the 15-inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display [2] appeared Sunday evening on 9to5Mac [3], which said that their info had come from "a consistently reliable source at a high-profile US retailer."
If a 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display is, indeed, in the works, it will come as no surprise – such a machine was predicted [4] back in June, mere days after the 15-inch version was revealed [5].
And, no, we didn't even bother calling Apple for comment. There's wasting one's time, and then there's wasting one's time in an utterly futile quest. ®
Bootnote
Is the impending appearance of a smaller Retina Display MacBook Pro not enough to sate your rumor hunger for today? Well then, how about a thinner iMac [6], with a redesign said to be of "epoch-making significance?"
