Apple introduces the New Macbook Pro - 2 Models

Submitted by Chetan on Tuesday, 14 October 200810 Comments

So the live conference and event is running, and Steve Jobs, after the announcement of the new trackpad for notebooks has announced the new version of Macbook Pro, which has something as seen below -

The Mini DisplayPort is downsized from the full sized DVI connector. The Mini DisplayPort can drive everything the big DVI can (30-inch displays). 0.95 inches. Thinnest ever.
MacBook Pro has full glass, an instant-on LED display, all the connectors on one side and it just looks awesome with the features mentioned.
The connectors are, in order from the left, Magsafe, Gigabit Ethernet, Firewire 800, two USB ports, a Mini Display Port, Audio In/Out (analog and optical digital), ExpressCard 34, and a battery indicator.

It’s going to come in two models. $1999, 15.4-inch LED backlit display. 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 3MB L2 Cache, 2GB 1066MHz DDR3 Memory, the two GeForces, 250GB hard drive and SuperDrive.
Second config is $2499. 2.53GHz, 6MB L2 Cache, 4GB memory, 512MB video memory and bigger hard drive.

New graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 9400M in the MacBook Pro. There’s also a 9600M GT, which is the “state of the art mobile graphics”, with 32 parallel graphics cores, 120 Gigaflops and 512MB video memory. They’re including BOTH of these in the MacBook Pro.

Something new in Macbook Air -
They’re putting the 9400M into the MBA. 4x faster graphics. They’re upgrading the 120GB HDD (up from 80GB), or a 128GB SSD. Also has a Mini Display port.
The new MacBook Airs will be available in early November.

One more to be released is the 24″ display screen.

    The full glass, an instant-on LED display seem interesting and it makes the macs which are already a beautiful look more beautiful, as said above “this is why i love mac” comes true as they are constantly updating.
