Just a reminder, if you are a Apple fan, don’t forget the WWDC 2007 Keynote by our favorite fellow Steve Jobs is today. I am not positive what is going to be announced, I am sure they will be covering the iPhone and Leopard. The keynote starts at 1pm east coast time.
Some places to catch the live keynote coverage:

Well Apple has updated MacBook Pro with a LED Display, faster CPU, and some other goodies. Might be time for me to finally get a Mac Laptop, those are some impressive specs.

From: Apple’s official Press release
Apple® today updated its MacBook® Pro line of notebooks with the latest Intel Core 2 Duo processors, memory up to 4GB, and high-speed graphics in a stunning, lightweight, aluminum enclosure that is just one-inch thin. The new MacBook Pro is available in 15-inch models with a new mercury-free, power-efficient LED-backlit display and a 17-inch model with an optional high-resolution display. All models include a built-in iSight® video camera for video conferencing on-the-go, Apple’s MagSafe® Power Adapter that safely disconnects when under strain, and built-in 802.11n wireless networking for up to five times the performance and twice the range of 802.11g.*

The new MacBook Pros utilize the Santa Rosa chipset and come in the following configurations:
$1999. 2.2GHz Core 2 Duo. 2GB RAM, 120GB HD, 15″ LED. GeForce 8600M GT 128MB
$2499. 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo. 2GB RAM, 160GB HD, 15″ LED. GeForce 8600M GT 256MB
$2799. 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo. 2GB RAM, 160GB HD, 17″. GeForce 8600M GT 256MB
The 15-inch model uses a new LED display, while the 17-inch model now offers a new optional 1920-by-1200 high-resolution display.
According to the rumors a new Apple Macbook Pro is due out soon. I’m hoping it will be updated to the new Intel chipset along with a few other updated features. I have been waiting every since the release of the first Intel Macbook pro for a two button mouse, and I hope this will be part of the update. Even with the MacPro I have now, I use a two button mouse, and don’t see why they wouldn’t offer that ability on the laptop. The rumors are as follows: LED Display, Santa Rosa Intel cpu. We shall see after WWDC, which is just about a week away. I’m due for a new laptop, come on Apple, WOW me!
