Apple has made some changes to its line of MacBook products, beefing up specs and/or cutting the price of models.
Sales of Apple's MacBook products have been lower than expected, leading some analysts to question whether Apple's own iPad product is harming sales of its high-end notebooks.
Today, Apple has made some changes to bump the disappointing sales. The 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display now starts at $1,499 for 128GB of flash, and $1,699 for a new 2.6 GHz processor and 256GB of flash.
The 15-ince MacBook Pro with Retina display now features a 2.4GHz quad-core processor, while the top-end 15-inch notebook now comes with a 2.7GHz quad-core processor and 16GB of memory. Apple also announced that the 13-inch MacBook Air with 256GB of flash has a new price of $1,399.
The updated MacBook Pro with Retina display and MacBook Air models are available today through the Apple Online Store, Apple's Retailer Stores and authorized re-sellers.
