Apple will reportedly begin manufacturing an updated MacBook Air next month to keep demand for the compact notebook high, according to Concord Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.
Kuo tells AppleInsider that his latest round of checks with suppliers and system builders in the region reveals that MacBook Air shipments are set to rebound during the current calendar quarter, fueled by an upgrade to Intel's latest Sandy Bridge microprocessors, integrated Intel graphics, and the expected adoption of the new Thunderbolt high-speed I/O technology that made its debut on MacBook Pros earlier this year.
Kuo says the new models will "go to mass production in late May." Apple is also said to be working on an updated iMac and a redesigned Mac Pro for release in the coming months.
