肖· 吴在写给客户的报告中称，供应短缺可能是因MacBook Pro笔记本需求太强或即将推出新版，或者两者兼有。他预计新版MacBook Pro将安装英特尔最新的高性能和节能型处理器，并将在苹果公司第二或第三财季（分别在3月和6月结束）销售新版MacBook Pro。

他表示，表面看Mac业务不需要新产品，因为需求非常好，但升级MacBook Pro可保持产品的吸引力。他指出，苹果最近一次升级MacBook Pro是在2009年6月，最便宜的版本为1199美元，与999美元的MacBook很类似。去年10月苹果还升级了MacBook系列，推出有多点触控功能的更快速版。
肖·吴称，MacBook Pro要保持高价，需要进一步差异化，而不仅是有铝合金外壳、SD插槽和FireWire。他将苹果股票评级定为“买入”，目标价格定在253美元。
