Hi Dan

Thanks very much for the info on these new machines. They do sound pretty impressive. A 512gb solid state drive!! Wow that is amazing. Do you know of any feed back on these drives? Also, a choice between a glossy and anti-glare LED backlit display. These are all new to me Dan! Which is the most useful display? I met with a guy down here this week and he had a new 13" model (about 3 months old) that had a very clear and bright display that just looked excellent. Would that have been a 'glossy' display?

I also saw earlier this week that the new CS5 suite has been released by Adobe. They just keep on coming dont they! I imagine the suite will cost, but photoshop etc should have a stack of improvements. Im still using CS2!!

Best regards and thanks again for your info it is very interesting.

Chris

Hi Chris

Similar processors to what are in the high end iMac's which they've had for
a while now,..so yeh, all should work fine,...just faster.

They only came out late Tuesday night/early Wednesday morning our time, so
you haven't been too far in a cave not knowing about them ;o)

Some tests on them around (just google i5 MacBook Pro and you should get
some results). Can also have a look here:-

(Any pricing you see of course will be US non tax etc,..)

Hope that helps.

Kind Regards
Daniel

Hi everyone

The new Macbooks have new i5 and i7 processors from Intel. Does anyone
know about these, and what we can expect? Will all present software
run as usual, only faster?

I must be living in a cave as I havnt heard boo about these!

Many thanks and kind regards to all.

Chris
