[5star] Abinyah's technology picks

As I reported earlier Apple's product refresh includes both a Macbook Pro 15-inch 2.53GHz Core i5 and a 2.66GHz Core i7 both with 4-GB of Memory and a 500-GB hard drive.  The impressive 8-9 hour built in battery really makes these macbook pro's a must upgrade for any portable mac user.

Expandable up to 8-GB of RAM and a 7200 rpm hard drive will add a much needed boost to graphic intensive portable users.  The option of up to 512GB of Solid State Drive storage will extend the usability life of your laptop out to 5+ years.


The surprisingly innovative graphic switching Intel HD Graphics and NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M is worth a nod.

A new Hi-res Glossy or Antiglare (easier on the eyes) widescreen boosts the original 1,440x900 LED to an impressive 1,608x1,050.
