New MacBook Pro
 
http://www.apple.com/macbookpro/

So yesterday Apple unveiled this, pretty large upgrade for the powerbook.

It's based on an Intel processor, and is 4 times faster than the old 1.67GHz powerbooks. Also the screen is 67% brighter.

At only one inch thick, and faster than the G5... it still runs OS X (hides from witeshark). hehe :thumbup

NICE!!! I just saw it this morning! 4X faster!! And the battery life is a lot longer as well.

I agree with whiteshark: THE BEST NOTEBOOK ON EARTH!

How dows that thing compare to the mini?

witeshark 01-12-2006 10:32 AM

It\'s way past the mini, having the new dual core Intel CPU where the mini has a G4 like the Powerbook

nick_318is 01-12-2006 02:02 PM

hmm mini with an intel chip, if they sell it for the same price i might have to get rid of my g5 imac

Numark318i 03-12-2006 11:45 PM

12" powerbook for the win.

yea i wish i would have a legit reason to spend half my savings on another laptop. But i dont.

Funny how the only reason apple owns so much is cause someone had to pull them out of the hole with *insert large sum of cash here* so microsoft wouldnt monopolize.
