Last week, I dropped Edward, my first Macbook. So sad.
But today, New Macbook Pro has been arrived.
I introduce Edward Jr., my new Macbook Pro, to you.
And there is a little customizing – a Solid-State-Drive instead of a Hard Drive.
# SPEC
Processor : 2.53GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
L2 cache : 3MB shared
System bus : 1066MHz
Memory : 4GB DDR3 SDRAM
Hard drive : 128GB SSD
Graphics : NVIDIA GeForce 9400M
Battery : Up to 7 hours
Etc : FireWire 800 port, SD card slot
Weight : 4.5 pounds (2.04kg)
It’s good.
Actually, SSD option gave me more than my expectation.
- Speed
Compare to my old Edward(Macbook 2.4GHz, 2GB DDR3 SDRAM, 250GB HDD), I feel triple fast its boot up and shut down, four times fast handling heavy application and files.
Okay, for example, it’s only taking 18 sec for OS X start up and 2 sec for Adobe photoshop CS4 start up. Only minus thing is it has small storage for its high price.
- Noise
There are no noise because he has no moving parts.
- Energy efficiency
Previous Macbook, I can use about 2 hours with its battery.
Now, according to official website, new model supports 7 hours use. I don’t believe it but I expect at least 4 hours of running time. (photoshop, dreamweaver, internet, documentation, music)
Instead, it lost changeable battery system.
“THIS IS IT”.
