Apple MacBook Pro 2008
The good: Updated CPUs, improved battery life, adds touch pad gestures from the MacBook Air.
The bad: Small performance premium over the cheaper 13-inch MacBook; only 90 days of toll-free technical support; still no SD card reader.
Apple issued its first update to the venerable MacBook line since the introduction of the MacBook Air. Regular 13-inch MacBooks get the usual CPU upgrade, but the MacBook Pro line gets a remarkable internal overhaul - including the new Intel Penryn-Class, the new touch pad gestures (lifted from the MacBook Air), and finally a backlit LED option for 17-inch model, some are already standard 15-inchers.
As we expect the new configurations hit the same price as the now-those suspended. More power for the same money is always welcome, but at $ 2499 (looking at higher-end of the two 15-inch configurations), but still think the cheaper 13-inch MacBook is better overall value outweighed only if you need either a larger screen or Express Card slot, or you can not live without the touch pad gestures.
