Apple announced this Tuesday that it has updated its high-end MacBook Pro laptops.
What have they Changed?
Faster processors, better graphics and more memory space.
The laptops are still available in three models:
Two 15.4-inch versions that retail for $1,999 and $2,499, and a larger, 17-inch edition that costs $2,799. But with Tuesday's update, the lower-end 15-inch model is now equipped with 2.2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processors (previously, it had a 2.16GHz chip); the higher-end 15-incher and the 17-incher now come with 2.4GHz processors, up from 2.33GHz. These new processors are indeed Intel's latest Centrino--or "Santa Rosa"--chips, which were introduced in early May.
All three MacBook Pros additionally now can be upgraded from 2GB to 4GB of RAM at extra cost, and have faster NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT graphics cards designed for media-intensive animation and gaming.
