News from Apples
Today the first of new machines from the Intel/Apple partnership were announced to the world. The 15-inch MacBook Pro laptop and the 17-inch and 20-inch iMac. The MacBook Pro is powered by an Intel Duo Core 1.67GHz or 1.83GHz CPU, while the iMac has either a 1.83GHz or 2.0GHz CPU – the Duo Core is basically like having two CPUs.
MacNN has their Macworld coverage page up. The keynote begins in just under half an hour.
Don’t forget, Macworld San Francisco 2006 starts this week, with the keynote from Steve Jobs being tomorrow morning at 9:00am PST/California. Nothing as earth shattering as the move to Intel announced last year, but there are good indications of new hardware being rolled out (Intel Core Duo powered Mac minis and iBooks being mentioned).
