New Macbook Pros Pack A Punch For Designers

Apple unveiled it's new line of Macbook Pro laptops. These new models are better performers than predecessors as they contain faster processors and new Nvidia graphics. The 15-inch and 17-inch models will now use Intel's Core i5 and i7 processors and Apple's graphics-switching technology. The graphics switching technology will allow the computer to automatically toggle between the Nvidia GeForce GT 330M and Intel's HD Graphics processors by way of an Energy Saver control panel. One of the benefits to the graphic switching tech is it will help greatly improve battery life. This new fleet of laptops will be powerful enough for intensive video editing professionals and versatile enough for web designers and business consultants that live on the road.

Here are some of the itemized features:

  • 32-nanometer process technology
  • Hyper-Threading
  • Turbo Boost: Core i series of chips use Turbo Boost
  • Updated Nvidia graphics silicon
  • Intel integrated graphics
