The smooth and comfortable keyboard is the best thing about the MacBook Pro
Review Verdict: While our benchmark tests didn't see anything like this, the machine is quick, and runs even the most taxing of applications without any trouble at all. It shouldn't come as a surprise to you to find 2,048MB of DDR2 memory helping things along. If you're

Apple MacBook Pro preview
Comments:
Decked out in a new look with a dual GPU setup, the latest MacBook Pro takes computing to another level.
Decked out in a new look with a dual GPU setup, the latest MacBook Pro takes computing to another level.
QuickTake:
Pros: New aluminum unibody construction looks good, feels solid; giant trackpad; attractive edge-to-edge glass on display; new dual graphics provide more power or more battery life.
Cons: All-clicking trackpad is a bit awkward, at least initially; the extra-glossy screen won't appeal to everyone; switching GPUs not as seamless as it should be; similar performance to the cheaper 13-inch MacBook; still no media card slot.
