INTEL Inside this MAC!

"The MacBook Pro sports the usual gorgeous aluminium enclosure we’ve all come to love on the PowerBook G4, weighs only 2.5kg and is less than 25mm thick (smaller and lighter than the PowerBook G4), includes a built-in iSight video camera for video conferencing on-the-go, and even comes with a diminutive matching infrared Apple Remote (looks like an Apple Shuffle MP3 player) and Front Row software for accessing your data across the room. The typing experience is still a pleasure (as is the backlit keyboard) and the touchpad is ideal for surfing, but the one-button mouse is a bit of a pain (especially if you’re migrating from a Windows XP laptop).

The £1779 model includes a 2.0GHz Intel Core Duo processor, up from the previously announced 1.83GHz, and is available now. The £1429 model includes a 1.83GHz Intel Core Duo processor, up from the previously announced 1.67GHz. In addition, you may now upgrade to a 2.16GHz Intel Core Duo processor as a build-to-order option on the Apple Online Store.

The new MacBook Pro also debuts Apple’s patent-pending MagSafe magnetic power connector, designed especially for mobile users. The MagSafe power connector charges the laptop’s battery by magnetically coupling the power cord to the MacBook Pro. The MagSafe power connector also safely disconnects from the laptop when there is strain on the power cord, helping to prevent the laptop from falling off its work surface when the power cord is inadvertently yanked. It is little design touches like this that really distinguishes Apple’s engineering vision."
