The mood isn’t exactly chipper at Apple HQ, but it sounds like products will keep rolling out: 9to5Mac’s anonymous sources say that the MacBook Pro lineup will get three new models soon. Apparently, Apple’s internal inventory system has new SKUs for all three sizes — including 13-, 15-, and 17-inch screens — but these will reportedly be minor hardware refreshes rather than the rumored Air-like thinner machines. Obviously, we’re dealing with rumor here, but the publication’s tipster has a pretty good record with these things. We wouldn’t be surprised to see some faster processor options before the holidays. Don’t suppose you could bring discrete graphics and a matte screen to the 13-inch Pro, Santa?
