MacBook Pro laptops get updated

Apple’s Worldwide Developer Conference has just got under way and the first bit of news delivered was an updated MacBook Pro family!

First up was the new 15-inch MacBook Pro – the fastest laptop ever made by Apple. The speed is ramped up thanks to a 3.06GHz Core 2 Duo processor. It will also boast Apple’s new built-in battery (which gives it 40 per cent more life) and up to 8GB of internal memory. Another upgrade is the built-in SD card slot. The price of the 15-incher has also come down and now costs £1,699 – that’s $300 cheaper than before.

The 17-inch MacBook Pro, forgoes the SD card slot and goes instead for an ExpressCard slot, allowing you to slip in a memory card from your digital camera and see your pictures straight away. It’s complimented by a 2.8GHz processor and a 500GB hard drive!

And finally a MacBook Pro small enough to fit in our manbags – a brand new 13-inch MacBook model. Starting at $1,199, it will feature all the amazing new extras (with SD card slot). We can’t wait to get our hands on them.
