The Apple MacBook Pro features Intel's
new third-generation Core architecture for a boost in processor and memory
speeds. New next-generation graphics deliver performance levels that are up to
60 percent faster than before. And high-speed Thunderbolt I/O lets you transfer
data at rates up to 10 GBps. The MacBook Pro is a great computer that just got
even greater.

Pro (view larger).
As with previous models, the MacBookPro features a precision unibody enclosure crafted from a single block of
aluminum, creating a thin and light mobile computing workhorse (less than 1
inch thin and just 4.5 pounds) that's also highly durable. It includes a
13.3-inch, LED-backlit glass display as well as a glass trackpad that doesn't
include a button (for larger tracking area) that features Apple's Multi-Touch
technology. You'll also get up to 7 hours of battery life while on the go.
The MacBook Pro also now includes both
a high-speed Thunderbolt port and two USB 3 ports, enabling you to easily
connect to external displays and a wide variety of high performance
peripherals.
This version of the 13.3-inch MacBookPro (model MD101LL/A) features a 2.5 GHz Core i5 dual-core processor, 500 GB
hard drive, and 4 GB of installed RAM. Other features include an 8x SuperDrive,
ultra-fast Wireless-N Wi-Fi networking, Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity, an SDXC
card slot, and a FireWire 800 port (see full specifications).

suite with iPhoto, iMovie, and Garageband (see larger imagehttp://amzn.to/19xIdTQ).
Key Features
Intel Core i5 Dual-Core Processing
The MacBook Pro packs plenty of power
thanks to the latest Intel Core i5 processor, which features a faster
processor, more powerful graphics, and a memory controller integrated into a
single chip. The third-generation dual-core Intel Core i5 has a 2.5 GHz speed,
which can dynamically accelerate up to 3.1 GHz to match your workload thanks to
updated Intel Turbo Boost Technology.
And with the Intel HD Graphics 4000
processor, you get up to 60 percent faster graphics. So the video you watch,
the FaceTime calls you make, and pretty much everything else you do is smoother
and more detailed.
High-speed Thunderbolt and USB 3 Ports
A high-speed Thunderbolt port allows
the MacBook Pro to transfer data at lightning-fast speeds and connect displays
like the Apple Thunderbolt Display, enabling you to turn this highly portable
notebook into a highly versatile workstation. And with two USB 3 ports, you'll
be able to connect the latest USB 3 devices and access a pipeline that's up to
10 times faster than USB 2.
The smooth,
buttonless multi-touch trackpad (see larger image).
Because Thunderbolt is based on
DisplayPort technology, you'll be able to connect to a high-resolution display
from the same port. Any Mini DisplayPort display plugs right into the
Thunderbolt port, and you can also connect displays that use DisplayPort, DVI,
HDMI, or VGA connections with an existing adapter. You'll also be able to
include your display into a daisy-chained set of peripherals.
Integrated HD FaceTime Webcam
You'll be able to easily connect with
friends, family, and business colleagues using the MacBook Pro's HD 720p
FaceTime camera, which is integrated into the thin bezel above the display and
features three times the resolution of the previous FaceTime camera. And with
Apple's FaceTime application, you're not limited to video chats with other
Macs--you can now make video calls to iPhone and iPod touch users.
Buttonless Multi-Touch Trackpad
With no button on the glass trackpad,
there's more room to track and click--left, right, center, and everywhere in
between. Without a separate button, the trackpad gives your hands plenty of
room to move on the large, silky glass surface. It also incorporates Multi-Touch
gestures--including swipe, pinch, rotate, and four-finger swipe. And it also
now supports inertial scrolling, an intuitive way to scroll through large photo
libraries, lengthy documents and long web sites.
