MacBook Pro line of notebooks was updated today with the latest
Intel Core 2 Duo processors and the memory was expanded up to 4GB.
Another improvement is that the new MacBook Pro is available
in 15-inch models with a new mercury-free, power-efficient LED-backlit display
and a 17-inch model with an optional high-resolution display.
“With Intel Core
2 Duo performance, more memory and state-of-the-art graphics, this MacBook Pro
is a portable powerhouse for creative and professional users,” said Philip
Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing.
“Apple’s notebooks have always led the industry in innovation with features
like built-in 802.11 and the MagSafe Power Adapter, and now the industry’s
first 15-inch LED-backlit display is another step toward completely eliminating
mercury from our displays.”, he added.
The MacBook Pro is available with either 2.2 GHz or 2.4 GHz
processors, and comes with a built-in iSight webcam.
MacBookPro includes also Bluetooth, two FireWire ports, a
DVI output, ExpressCard expansion slot, and a backlit keyboard. The
notebook is delivered with iLife pre-installed, which includes iPhoto, iMovie,
and iTunes.
The 2.2 GHz model is selling for around $2000. The 2.4 GHz unit comes
with a 15-inch monitor for a list price of around $2500, or a 17-inch display
for around $2700.
