17″ MacBook Pro

April 24, 2006 in Computing, Macs, Technology by undulattice | 1 comment

Apple have announced the addition of the 17″ MacBook Pro to their Intel based range.
Specs include Firewire 800 and a Double Layer 8x Superdrive, which were both missing in the 15″ MacBook Pro. It also has an additional USB 2.0 port.

You also get the option of up(down)grading from a 120gb 5400rpm hard drive to a 100gb 7200rpm hard drive. Personally I’d go for speed over space!

It’s expensive though, about Â£200 more expensive than a 17″ Powerbook (which have been discontinued and are no longer available from the Apple Store)

Young pickpocket sees the error of his ways in this lovely French film. Pickpocketing sequences are awesome!

Big robots and big explosions: yes. Shia LaBeouf, Michael Bay, and a rubbish plot: NO NO NO NO NO NO! It's rubbish.
