The new MacBook Pro spec are quite impressive. Not only is it more powerful over the older generation of MacBook Pros with the new Santa Rosa-based processors) but it makes my old-style PowerBook look ancient! Better and brigher display with a bigger hard drive and 2GB of RAM as standard. Very nice!
