As expected, Apple updated it's products today. Today Apple released the new MacBooks and MacBook Pros, featuring the newest Intel processors, LED displays, and more:

 

MacBooks:

$1099. Macbook 13" 2.1GHz / 1GB RAM / 120GB / Combo / White

$1299. Macbook 13" 2.4GHz / 2GB RAM / 160GB / Super / White

$1499. Macbook 13" 2.4GHz / 2GB RAM / 250GB / Super / Black

 

MacBook Pros:

$1999. Macbook Pro 15" 2.4GHz / 2GB RAM / 200GB 5400RPM / 256MB VRAM

$2499. Macbook Pro 15" 2.5GHz / 2GB RAM / 250GB 5400RPM / 512MB VRAM

$2799. Macbook Pro 17" 2.5GHz / 2GB RAM / 250GB 5400RPM / 512MB VRAM

 

The new MacBook Pros feature a MultiTouch trackpad, similar to the one on the new MacBook Air. I can't tell if the Trackpad on the new MacBook Pro is larger than the previous generation, but comparing it to mine, it does look a little wider.

Right, i know it is cheaper, but why they hell have Apple kept that god damn MB combo drive!

I do not want to fork over an extra 400$ for what in my eyes is 1 additional feature!

Haha, oh, I know.

 

It's $500 on Apple.com -- what a steal!

 

Hey now, you should rest easy knowing that the $500 worth of ram you've bought is Apple certified "high performance" ram :(

 

Though in all fairness, I think almost everyone overcharges for ram as its one of the easiest ways to bump up the profit margin (aside from those "service plans")

Haha, yeah -- though I do recommend the APP, it's disappointing that Apple doesn't offer insurance like the other OEM's do.

I bought the 2.4GHz Penyrn and I must say that I love it!!! I had one of the older ones with the X1600 and this one is a major upgrade. The most noticable difference is the screen. It is soooo bright! I have not had any problems with heat (unlike my other, which I couldn't even hold on my lap!). I must say that I am very impressed with this upgrade!

 

Man, soo great news on reducing heat, how much it cost?

2000$ is including shipping, taxes, all expenses?

Just to clear some confustion the reason i mentioned blue ray was just to state the generation we are currently in. ie CD - DVD - BD. i was just making the point that they should at least put dvd burnder. Def putting blu-ray would drain the battery.

 

It's not about cost...

 

the what? its to get people to consider a mac. then when the look at the specs to step up and get a more expensive one?
