Well, I must say I am very happy I did not buy the first iteration of Apple 13inch aluminum Mac Book last year b/c have really been the moment time to upgrade to a Mac Book Pro! It’s nice to have the “pro” trample on a 13“ now! Apple has listened to their clients to add almost all we asked and more and has reduced the cost! Thanks Apple!
Changes from previous years
$ 100 less
- 13-inch aluminum MacBook MacBook Pro has
- 2.53 GHz to 2.4 GHz dual-core from
- 4GB of RAM to 2 GB
- LED display is 60% of the color range is wider than the previous model
- New advanced built-in battery that lasts up to seven hours cons 4:00
- FireWire back (after all the complaints from the first model)
- SD card slot (replaces ExpressCard slot)
- New models now come with iLife ‘09
- Separate digital audio input has disappeared
- New model uses the same microphone and headphone port of the iPhone
PROS
- Finally, a price reduction with a performance upgrade! I knew that Apple could make. I was tired of paying for aesthetics and not performance.
- New Snow Leopard operating system comes pre-installed! same ease of use with performance much faster!
- LCD much better! in line with the Pro models … always brilliant and some shine, but much nicer!
- Keyboard backlit on all 13 “models now (I really like what can be controlled from bottom to top)
- Battery life is much better than last year. (I get about six hours without regular use of 7:00, which was reported)
- The computer is really an eye-catcher beautifully designed.
- 09 ILife Suite is ideal for photos, movies and music. Not very good software to sell hardware.
- SD card slot accepts SDHC, which goes up to 32 GB and works like a charm. (Can start from an SD card as well)
CONS
- Aluminium housing that tooth easily if dropped. (Buy a carrying case!)
- Power supply is short and does not reach many places that I like … should be very close to a wall outlet.
- The battery can be easily removed
- SD card sticks halfway out of the slot. eyestrain.
- Optional Blu-ray would have been nice, but understandable given the license. (Many Bluray provide digital copies using)
