With the new hardware announcement this past Monday from Apple Inc., they have left a hole in their MacBook product line. With only leaving the white MacBook in the “consumer” market, they will most likely be introducing an 8″ or 9″ MacBook with-in the next year or so to compete with the netbook market. This new line of machines that I am predicting would have the same build quality as all of the other Apple products but will have lower specs a smaller size to put these machines at the right price point.

I am still unsure on how an Apple tablet would fit into Apple’s overall business model but I guess that all of that can change like it did two years ago when they introduced the iPhone.
