For the first time, Apple notebooks can have a maximum of 8GB RAM
Most of us want a lighter machine. At least the sub-notebooks available in 10-, 15- and 17-inch models at times don’t make a lot of sense to me. I really like the 13-inch size and being an Apple fan, my biggest complaint with Apple was that their Professional series products were not available in 13-inch. Well, that was until June 2009, when they announced it globally and now it’s also available in India. The new series of MacBook Pro now come in 13-, 15- and 17-inch sizes. The new editions feature Unibody line, with a new battery that gives 40 per cent more running time. Also, the display is now LED backlit. The backlit keyboard let’s you work easily in the dark and is a standard feature. Also, you can finally buy a MacBook with an SD card or PC Express slot.
I loved the 13-inch MacBook Pro, which I evaluated and loved, and want to now get rid of my new aluminium MacBook to get Pro, but sadly, the missus will kill me if I do this. Coming back to the product, the 13-inch model comes with either a 2.26 or 2.54 GHz Core 2 Duo, the 15-inch features a 2.66 and a 2.8 GHz, and the 17-inch—which includes an 8-hour battery, 4GB RAM, Express Card slot and a 500 GB hard disk—with a 2.8 GHz Core 2 Duo.
For the first time, Apple notebooks can now have a maximum of 8GB RAM, and will soon be coming out with the 3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor. Also as on 28 August, Apple Snow Leopard has become available, which will come to you free of cost. You may have to pay shipping and handling.
