2011 MacBook ProAccording to a new report from Apple, the company’s new MacBook pro Series could be the next Apple product in line for a hardware upgrade. AppleInsider, who cites multiple anonymous sources that, according to the site, have “proven insight into Apple’s future product plans”, states that Apple plans on introducing new models of the MacBook Pro with faster Intel processors.

These new models are said to be shipping in time for this year’s holiday shopping season though the source has stated that we may see these new MacBook Pros as early as this month, great news considering the fact that shoppers will also be able to use further discounts found on websites like https://www.raise.com/coupons/walmart. Regardless of when we get them, a lot of questions are being raised about these new models, especially in terms of how much of an improvement we are getting.

AppleInsider has stated that Intel’s latest series of quad-core Core i7 chips will be added to the new MacBook Pros. These chips come in at 2.4GHz, 2.5GHz or 2.7GHz and are sure to mesh well with Apple’s popular notebook. These processors are also an improvement over the current 2.0GHz, 2.2GHz and 2.3GHz in the current 15″ and 17″ models.

The last update Apple performed on its MacBook Pro line occurred back in February which brought Intel’s Sandy Bridge CPUs to the entire fleet of MacBook Pro computers. In addition to that, the update also added Thunderbolt, the impressively fast new port that came from a technical collaboration between Apple and Intel.

Aside from that, other changes to the MacBook Pro line consisted of the move to Intel’s integrated graphics and GPUs from AMD as well as a jump to FaceTime HD cameras. However, despite the somewhat recent update, interest in a complete MacBook Pro overhaul remains.

Apple’s MacBook Air saw a nice new overhaul last October which brought the laptop the title of Apple’s “Next Generation of MacBooks”. Multiple reports that surfaced back in July suggest that Apple is working on potentially expanding the MacBook line to include a bigger 15″ model. However, it is still unclear as to whether or not that means a 15″ MacBook Air or a new design on the MacBook Pro line.
