Apple has just confirmed that they’ve released a new generation of Macbook Pro.  You can see from the picture above that it is much thinner than the current generation…nearly as thin as the Macbook Air but not tapered.

• .71″ thin
• 4.46 lbs
• 15.4″ Retina Display – 2880 x 1800 – 220ppi

• Up to 16GB of RAM
• 768GB of flash storage
• 7 hours battery life

All of the stock apps have been updated to use the higher resolution screen along with Aperture and Final Cut Pro.  Pictures and videos will look absolutely gorgeous on this new screen.

$2199 starting price for 2.3GHz quad-core chip, 8GB of RAM and 256GB of flash storage.  Apple is calling these the future of notebooks and are available to start shipping today!
