元器件交易网讯 3月27日消息，据外媒报道，台湾供应链方面称2014年Macbook出货量将较2013年的1200万台减少15%，大约在1000万或990万台左右。

　　2014年1、2月份Macbook出货量与预期持平，但消息人士称3月出货量有所下降。

　　其他台湾供应链人士认为因下半年苹果将推出新机型，2014年Macbook出货量估值未必准确。该消息人士表示苹果将推出一款配备有Retina显示屏的Macbook。

　　2014年下半年苹果将推出一款12英寸左右的iPad，由广达电脑（QuantaCompute）负责代工生产。（元器件交易网毛毛  译）

　　MacBook shipments in 2014 are likely todrop by about 15% from 12 million units in 2013 to 10 million units or even 9.9million units, according to some of Taiwan-based supply chain makers.

　　MacBook shipments in January-February 2014were as expected, but Apple has significantly decreased shipments in March, thesources said.

　　However, other Taiwan-based supply chainmakers hold the opinion that 2014 MacBook shipments estimates may not be accuratebecause Apple will launch new models in the second half of 2014. Apple willreportedly launch a MacBook Air with Retina display, the makers said.

　　Apple will launch a large (around 12-inch)iPad in the second half of 2014, with Quanta Computer responsible for OEMproduction.
