MacBook Pro
February 2008: Now with faster processors, multi-touch trackpads, Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT graphics with more RAM and built-in 802.11n for the fastest wireless. Optional 2.6GHz processor too.
There's an LED-backlit display (15.4": 1440x900, 17" 1680x1050), and on the 17" model (1680x1050) there's the option to upgrade to better-than-high-definition resolution (1920x1200). Optional glossy screens on all models, and of course there's an iSight camera embedded above the screen for instant worldwide videoconferencing. The ExpressCard/34 slot provides expansion for extra networking, FireWire 800 or eSATA connections.
If you've ever tripped over a laptop power cord, you'll appreciate the MagSafe magnetically coupled power connector. It disconnects easily, saving the laptop from a fall.
What else? Analog/digital audio input and output, 8x SuperDrive, Bluetooth, Gigabit ethernet and FireWire 400 and 800. From the last generation: Sudden Motion Sensor, dual-DVI support for the 30" Cinema Display. The 17" model adds an extra USB port, larger screen and the HD-resolution screen option.
