Apple Computer Performance: February 08 MacBook Pro 2.6 GHZ Compared To October MacBook Pros - A Speed Comparison - Performance, Reviews and Information

Saturday, December 13, 2008

 

The Question:

I'd like to see a comparison of the new Macbook Pros with the previous fastest 15" Macbook Pro - the 2.6GHZ custom build with the 7200 rpm drive. I hate the new machine's lack of Firewire 400 so I'm thinking of getting one of the 'old' models, as long as it is going to be as fast!

thanks,

Niall
