About
Apple modestly tweaks the 13" Unibody but adds the Pro. Changes from the unibody MacBook (sans-pro) are generally welcome. The price was lowered by $100, a backlit keyboard, and Firewire 800 were added among other features. The non-removable battery performance is rated for 7 hours of screensaver watching, but seems to get 3-5 hours with normal use. The SD port addition is convenient, though several years behind OEM additions of multi-card readers. A new screen has improved brightness and viewing angles, and the allowable 8GB of RAM adds some serious potential for 64-Bit apps once Snow Leopard hits shelves in September.
