Performance squared - MacBook Pro is built on the revolutionary Intel Core 2 Duo — which packs the power of two processor cores (up to 2.33GHz) inside a single chip.
Ah yes, now that Apple has made the move to Intel, we can enjoy the constant sensation of kicking ourselves in the pants every few months. “Why didn’t I wait?,” I ask myself as I look at my puny Core Duo. Of course I didn’t wait because I wanted a new system.
Now we’ll all be facing processor envy as new, faster chips become available at breakneck speed. Until I find something that chokes my eight-month-old dinosaur I suppose I have no choice but to grin and bear it.
