I have one on order myself, so if you're repeatedly clicking on the "order status" button at the Apple Store site, hoping to find your 17-in. versions of the new MacBook Pro - unveiled just last week - are already getting into buyers' waiting hands, and the 17-in. Aside from the fact that it's about 8% faster in terms of clock speed, underlying changes to the processor design - especially a doubling of the Level 2 cache memory from 2MB to 4MB - mean the uptick in speed is noticeable. (The first-generation MacBook Pros topped out at 2.16 GHz and used Intel's Core Duo chip.) But what a difference that "2" in the processor name makes.įor speed demons, this is the fastest laptop Apple has yet offered. Sure it's got the new Core 2 Duo processor, which offers a speed bump from 2.16 GHz to 2.33 GHz.
