Apple Confirms Retina MacBook Build-to-Order Pricing for 1.3 GHz Processor

Apple this morning released full pricing information for the Retina MacBook to reseller partners such as Expercom (https://www.expercom.com/product_detail.html?p=1221389), confirming prices of the new 12-inch MacBook for customers who plan to opt for beefed-up processors in the checkout process when the device launches this Friday, April 10.
 
 As stated during the "Spring Forward (http://www.macrumors.com/2015/03/09/apple-new-macbook-2015/)" event last month, the entry-level MacBook will retail for $1299 with a 1.1 GHz dual-core Intel Core M processor, 8 GB of memory, and 256 GB of flash storage.
 
 According to Expercom, this machine will have a configure-to-order option that bumps its performance with a 1.3 GHz Intel Core M processor, with the same 256 GB flash storage. The upgrade will cost those interested an extra $250, raising the entry-level option to $1549 when choosing the upgraded version.

 The high-end stock model announced at last month's event comes with a 1.2 GHz processor with 8 GB of memory and 512 GB of flash storage, priced at $1599. Apple will offer the 1.3 GHz processor upgrade option here as well, keeping the same 512 GB of flash storage and charging an additional $150 over the base price of the 1.2 GHz model for a total price of $1749.
 
 Complete lineup:
 
 - 1.1 GHz with 256 GB storage: $1299
 - 1.3 GHz with 256 GB storage: $1549
 - 1.2 GHz with 512 GB storage: $1599
 - 1.3 GHz with 512 GB storage: $1749
 
 The new 12-inch MacBook is set to launch this Friday, April 10 on the Apple online store (http://store.apple.com/us/buy-mac/macbook) and in Apple retail stores, though recent news (http://www.macrumors.com/2015/04/07/angela-ahrendts-online-memo/) from Apple Retail Chief Angela Ahrendts points to better possibilities of a completed order when visiting the company's online storefront or Apple Store app.
