The 15″ MacBook Pro only comes with a glossy screen. The black keys look sharp with the aluminum enclosure. The new MBP uses the same keyboard as the MacBook Air, complete with backlighting. The entire trackpad functions as the mouse button. It supports 1-, 2-, 3-, and 4-finger gestures. The glass trackpad is the same one found in the previous generation of MacBook Pro models.
Apple does not allow the two GPUs to be used concurrently, and you have to log out to switch between them. The 9600M has its own dedicated video memory (256 MB on the 2.66 GHz MBP, 512 MB on the 2.8 GHz model), while the 9400M uses 256 MB of system memory (add 16 MB when used with an external display). The 2.66 GHz and faster versions include two graphics processors – the GeForce 9600M GT and the GeForce 9400M, which combines a graphics processor (with 16 or 32 cores!) and its supporting chipset on a single die. The ExpressCard slot, present in every MacBook Pro until now, has been replaced with an SD Card slot. The 15″ MBP design puts all the ports (and a battery indicator) on the left side, leaving the right side for the SATA SuperDrive. In the case of the 15″ MacBook Pro, that battery is rated at 7 hours. Prices start at US$1,699.įollowing the example set by the Early 2009 17″ Unibody MacBook Pro, the entire MacBook Pro line now has built-in batteries. The entry-level 2.53 GHz model doesn’t have the GeForce 9600GT M graphics chip found in the previous generation of 15″ MacBook Pros – and in the faster models in the current generation. For the first time in a long time, the 15″ MacBook Pro has become more affordable while adding an SD Card slot.
