Apple Inc. will release a new low-cost laptop and a professional-focused upgrade to the Mac mini desktop later this year, ending a drought of Mac computers that has limited sales of the company’s longest-running line of devices, according to people familiar with the plans. The new laptop will look similar to the current MacBook Air, but will include thinner bezels around the screen. The display, which will remain about 13-inches, will be a higher-resolution "Retina" version that Apple uses on other products, the people said. They asked not to be identified discussing products still in development.This is great news for anyone who needs or wants to work with Mac OS but can't stomach the cost of admission. If it still comes with the same keyboard as current models do? All the better. And the fact that they're revamping the Mac Mini is icing on the cake. In my opinion, there's no better machine on the market. I know some of you will fight me on this. Despite their lackluster educational olive branches and greasy dealings with the Chinese government, Apple still makes a fine computer (you know, except for that whole keyboard thing, but they're working it out!) that I use on a daily basis.
