MacBook Pro gets reviewed
David Ciccone over at MobilityToday put up his review of the oh-so-new and oh-so-fast 2GHz Intel Core Duo MacBook Pro. Some good morsels mentioned in the article; the laptop isn't held toghet by a latch of somesort, some quite strong magnets keep it closed, the keyboard is backlit in the dark but the MacBook Pro also has a built-in ambient light sensor that helps it determine how bright to make the keyboard and screen. He didn't get the full advertised battery life though, he got around 3.5 hours of battery life vs the advertised 5-8 hours. That could have been due to not fully optimizing it to conserver battery life but eh, no biggie. Basically the Intel Dual Core MacBook Pro is nice, slick and fast. Color me envious. ¶ 5:12 AM
