MacBook Pro 2011 15-inch specs, picture hands-on


Design of the new MacBook Pro 2011 is actually identical to previous models with Apple keeping the unibody shell the same as before, only real difference to the outside design is the addition of the Thunderbolt logo instead of the display port, on the left hand side of the laptop.
While it might look the same from the outside, it’s packed with plenty of speed enhancements, from the addition of a SDXC card reader instead of a standard SD card reader, and a new webcam that now records in 720p at 1280x720 resolution. Other treats include faster quad-core processors (on the 15- and 17-inch models) although Apple hasn't moved away from DVD install disks like they did with the MacBook Air.
