Intel Core 2 Duo 64 bit, more RAM, bigger HD. Firewire 800, double layer
superdrive.

http://www.apple.com/macbookpro/intel.html

64 bit is important to me for upcoming OSX versions and 3D animation
software updates.

The MacBooks will likely also get the Core 2 Duo at some point.

Cheers,

Just read about the new Macbook pro. The FW 800 port was what I was waiting
for.
First thing in the morning is to contact my local apple reseller.
Btw, anyone interested in an Albook G4 1.5Ghz with 2GB Ram? Rick, DJ;?)

I already called MacMall and ordered me up one of them there 15"
2.33GHz ones.

I was waiting for the Core2 chips since the rumor started that they
were coming....

Same price as before, but better chips, double the ram, larger hard
drive, and one more FW port.

The worst part now is waiting for it to ship.

Will do. MacMall just sent me a shipping notification....

Of everything BUT the MBP.

So, I can stare at the battery and the software boxes. Whee.
