Apple releases hot new 17" unibody MacBook Pro
Tuesday, January 6 2009 @ 2:03 PM ET | Article Link
Apple
released a new 17" MacBook Pro today in an aluminum unibody configuration similar to the 15" models introduced last October. The new 17" model ($2799) comes standard with a 2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo CPU, 4GB RAM (expandable to 8GB), a 320GB hard drive (256GB SSD available), and a $300 2.93GHz CPU option.
The 17" MacBook Pro is also available with a $50 antiglare display option, much to the relief of many 'Book users. A multi-touch glass trackpad is included, as are NVIDIA GeForce 9400M + 9600M GT (512MB) graphics. Apple claims the new self-contained battery (non-removable) is rated for 8 hours on a single charge. At 6.6 pounds and 0.98 inches thick, Apple claims this is the lightest and thinnest 17" notebook currently on the market.
