MacBook Pro Supplies Constrained Ahead of Expected Update

Posted April 10, 2012 at 6:12pm by iClarified
Retailers are experiencing constrained supplies of the 15-inch MacBook Pro ahead of an update that's expected to bring Ivy Bridge processors and a thinner design, according to AppleInsider.

Multiple authorized resellers this week are reflecting stock outs of 15-inch MacBook Pros, suggesting that Apple is ramping down production of existing models before introducing redesigned offerings that will largely resemble the company's increasingly popular line of ultra-slim MacBook Airs.

Among those resellers reflecting backorder status on some of the current 15-inch MacBook Pros is J&R, which is now sold out of both the 2.2GHz model, which is listed as "out of stock," and the 2.4GHz variety, which is currently advertised as "on order." In addition, Best Buy has also stopped accepting online orders for the 2.4GHz model for home delivery.



The site also reported that about half the Best Buy stores checked have no stock in store.

Intel reportedly plans to launch desktop and mobile Ivy Bridge CPUs on April 29 paving the way for updates to the iMac and MacBook.
