With the announcement of the new Macbook Pro’s I saw it as a great time to upgrade from my trusty 5 year old 12” 1.33Ghz Powerbook.
My first impressions are: “WOW”. But really, what other reaction can I have coming from a Powerbook?
Basic specs:
- 2.2Ghz Santa Rose (Previous Gen) Core 2 Duo
- 4GB Ram (OH YEAH!)
- 120GB HD
- 128MB Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT
- 15.4” Glossy Display (Sooo glad I didn’t go Matte…)
I’m still loading it up and being download happy but from my initial usage there are no downsides at all. After I’m done setting everything up and get a few more days of usage under my belt I’ll post a more thorough review.
