Macbook Pro 13 Inch Review

I bought my Macbook Pro to upgrade my home studio recording. At that time I was using an older Mac towers and the Macbook was more than twice as powerful as the tower. Since I traveled a lot this is a good feeling at the time and I could use the spare time to writing and recording music on the road ... MBox interface connector for the Mac, the fire Pro Tools software, and you're ready to go. It was a great flexibility on the same road as at home with a much larger system.

Should I get 13 inch or 15 inch? ... Decisions, decisions.

Deciding between 13 and 15 inch models is difficult at this time. I needed a big-screen editing of music I do (plus some video editing with Final Cut Pro and), but it also meant a larger and less portability. My friend at the time, got 17 inches and it seemed a little ridiculous when we were traveling, put it on an airplane folding table that is so much space.

eventually went for 13-inch for portability. When I worked at home and added a 19-inch computer monitor. It's great that the double screen, change the whole computer experience.

So what are the differences with the new model from last year's model?

2X 2GB RAM 4 GB -. Any amount of multi tasking and running media programs Pro Tools and Final Cut 2GB is not enough

hard disk - old model came with 160Gigs in relation to the new 250GB

Graphics -. New high-performance NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M integrated graphics processor in comparison to the old Geforce 9400M graphics chip

They (Apple) argue NVIDIA GeForce 330M GT is faster and more powerful processing, but it is up to 30 percent more energy efficient than previous ones, because the technology improved.

battery - takes up to 10 hours depending on how you use it. This is one to two hours long of 15 and 17 inch models. Also, these new advanced batteries will last for five years, to 1000 the full cost, whereas a typical notebook computer can use three.

two choices for your 13 inch MacBook Pro:

Macbook Pro 13 inch 2.4 GHz - things such as memory and hard disk size can be upgraded at least twice: So, 4 GB of memory can be upgraded to 8GB . The hard drive comes with a 250GB Serial ATA drive and can go as high as 512GB solid state disk.

Macbook Pro 13 inch 2.66 GHz - upgrade options are identical, except the 2.66 2.4 comes standard with a 320GB hard drive as opposed to the 250GB models diskslabije .

is the difference?

As you can see the only difference between these two 13-inch models are processor speed and hard disk size of the shares.
