Rumors Swirl of Possible New Cheaper 12-Inch MacBook Model Aimed at Education Market

There has been speculation Apple is considering a low-cost MacBook model, possibly a 12-inch or 13-inch aimed at education.

Sources like Digitimes and Ming-Chi Kuo have suggested this, but details are vague and their track records mixed.

Blogger yeux1122 claims Apple is developing a 12-inch base model and 13-inch education model.

A low-cost MacBook could help boost sales, but risks cannibalizing iPad and higher-end MacBooks.

Reports are speculative so far, but a cheaper 12-inch MacBook would appeal if priced around $800-$900.
