Official pricing from Core, versus pricing from a reseller.

Not much difference in pricing, but more breakdown on pricing for the various models. Plus - OFFICIAL - for what that's worth

Ok... why not just put in one article? Call it, South African Macbook Pricing Official vs Reseller or something creative like that.

Was just curious. Seller vs official price is fine, just thought it... odd.

The reason is because the reseller announced their pricing before Core.

Core didn't respond to our request for confirmation on the pricing.

Later in the day they sent out their official pricing.

We had to run it as a new article because while similar within that same topic, there is the key factor of the one being official recommended pricing. This is what people may search for in Google.

Those who have already read the first article will probably not be checking it for updates, but they might spot a new article (like you did).

At least we aren't wasting paper!

Cool. Makes sense.

First MBP with Retina Display is in and unsurprisingly its AWESOME!

All of these components translated to a blazing benchmark performance. On Cinebench 11.5, the new MacBook Pro returned a CPU score of 6.12 points. The 13-inch MacBook Air scored just 2.09 points on the CPU test, so we're talking 3X the performance. The last-generation 15-inch MacBook Pro scored 5.41, or about 18 percent slower.


On Geekbench, the MacBook Pro scored 11,049, beating the Acer Timeline M3 by a wide margin (6,017) as well as the last-generation 15-inch Pro (10,874). The Alienware M18X we reviewed last year registered 9,458, while the more recent MSI GT60 got 10,854. So you know it's a good sign when this notebook is surpassing full-fledged gaming rigs.
