AppleInsider reports that production of the new MacBook Pros are already underway and that volume shipments will begin as early as the first week of March.
A person familiar with the matter said the Mac maker currently anticipates an introduction of the new models within about two weeks time, which would represent a delay of just a couple of weeks from when the company initially hoped to usher the new models onto the market.
