By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

While the MacBook does have some compromises (some of them glaring), there is no doubt that most of its features aren’t just here to stay, we can expect them to permeate the rest of Apple’s notebook and possibly even their desktop line. 

The new 12-inch Apple MacBook with a Retina Display is the latest in a long series of notebook innovations by Apple. It follows boldly in the footsteps of the PowerBook Duos, the transparent clamshell iBooks, the Titanium PowerBook G4 and its parent, the MacBook Air.
