| My Review on the new MacBook Pros
In the keynote address, Steve made the new MacBook pros seem like they are absolutely amazing and I wanted one so badly because apparently they are so much faster, etc. However well all know that they over exaggerate! I mean, after all Microsoft was able to make Vista sound amazing before it was released and we all know how that turned out.
Well, I'm still proud to say that I got my notebook just 5 hours ago and I got to say - WOW! My old macbook pro was a 2.2GHz 15" and I upgraded to a 15" 2.8 macbook pro with solid state, so it doesn't seem to much faster but compared, it really is! I now launch microsoft office in literally 1/4 of the time. Before I got rid of my old notebook, I rendered several videos and timed it so i had something to compare to. a 20 minute episode of family guy took me 12:14 and I shaved exactly 5:00 off the rendering time on my new notebook!
Overall- Simply amazing!
