The new macbook pro comes in three sizes - 13", 15" and 17". With upto 10 hours of battery life, an NVIDIA Graphics card, and an Intel Core i5 ( and Core i7), the new unibody macbook pro is
up to 1.5x faster than the old one. The Macbook Pro has 4GB RAM inbuilt and upgradeable upto 8GB. All models also have 1 firewire 800 port, two USB 2.0 ports and an SD card slot. Unfortunately there isn't much change in the design of the macbook pro and even the keyboard is almost the same apart from the color. A visible change , however, is that the trackpad is now a single glass touchpad, with the whole thing acting as a button. Again, Apple has shown its dislike of buttons. The new battery life is where Apple has truly wiped competitors off the board. A comparison of the three sizes of the macbook pro is given below...
