Laptop Computers
MacBook Pro. Now with Thunderbolt and Facetime HD - including Lion OS X.
State-of-the-art Intel processors. The 15- and 17-inch MacBook Pro now feature quad-core Intel Core i7 processors. And the 13-inch models jump to dual-core Intel Core i5 and i7 processors. All models are up to 2x faster.
Thunderbolt. The next generation of I/O. New Thunderbolt technology lets you connect high-performance peripherals and high-resolution displays to one port — with data transfer rates up to 10 Gbps.
Game-changing graphics. AMD Radeon graphics on the 15- and 17-inch MacBook Pro are up to 3x faster than those in previous models, so you can take everything from games to CAD to HD video projects anywhere.
OS X Lion. The world’s most advance OS system advances even further, with over 250 new features including Multi-Touch gestures, Mission Control, full screen apps and Launchpad.
Starting at just $1,189.
15” and 17” AppleCare just $319 (compare to Apple Store price of $349).
13” AppleCare just $229 (compare to Apple Store price of $249).
The new speed of light. The MacBook Air.
Intel i5 and i7 processors. Now with the latest Intel Core processors — a Core i5 up to 1.7GHz or an optional 1.8GHz Core i7 — and speedier DDR3 memory, the new MacBook Air is up to 2.5x as fast as the previous generation, yet it weighs next to nothing.
All flash storage. Because flash storage is up to two times faster than a conventional hard drive, everything you do is more responsive and immediate — starting up, browsing a large photo library, launching applications, and opening files. And flash storage doesn’t have any moving parts, which means it’s more reliable and quiet.
High-Speed Thunderbolt 1/0. The breakthrough I/O technology pioneered on MacBook Pro and iMac now comes to MacBook Air, letting you connect multiple high-performance devices — such as external hard drives — through a single port. With two 10-Gbps data channels, Thunderbolt lets you transfer data at rates up to 12 times faster than FireWire 800 and up to 20 times faster than USB 2.0.
Included software: OS X Lion, Mail, Address Book, iCal, the Mac App Store, iTunes, Safari, Time Machine, FaceTime, Photo Booth, Mission Control, Launchpad, AirDrop, Resume, Auto Save, Versions, Quick Look, Spotlight, QuickTime, and more.
