MacBook Pro Deals and Discounts Hint Imminent MacBook Pro 2013 Release Date?
Deals and discounts on previous models of MacBooks may be hinting the upcoming release date of this year's MacBook Pro 2013.
Buyers can save as much as $200 when they buy MacBooks in electronics retailer Best Buy. The shop also offers free shipping.
Last week, online retail giant Amazon offered a Quick Laptop Sale that slashed up to $250 off the original price of Apple laptops.
Moreover, Apple Store is still offering refurbished MacBooks that are way cheaper. Buyers can get 13.3-inch, 2.5GHz MacBook Pro with 4GB of RAM and a 500GB hard drive for only $999, which is also $200 less than its original price.
