Well, we would really like to think so but GeekBench is hardly a place where you verify things and use it as a proof. However, if these are indeed the benchmark results of a new built of MacBook Pros, they are pretty darn good! And besides, the MacBook Pros are quite overdue for a upgrade anyway. I am talking about the 15 inch and 17 inch models of course. And if this is it, boy are we in for a treat.
This is supposed to be the new model because the internal naming of 6,1 for a MacBook Pro doesn’t exist yet. This signifies a major shift in the whole line up.

This one’s a classic accidental leak or so you think. How a company as big as Intel manages to do this I do not know. But it was their Spanish branch, to cut them some slack here. Here’s what they did: Spanish Apple site Faq-Mac.com spotted a competition advert from Intel Spain that was showing off a Core i5 MacBook Pro as a Grand Prize. Pretty sweet I say!

Apple is probably one of most watched companies in the current tech industry. After taking the mobile phone industry completely by storm and making another iTunes (Music) Store success story out of it, the bystanders and the competitors have become wiser now — Apple is definitely up to something. A lot of things in fact, if all the rumors are to be believed. But since they can’t all be believed, here’s your distilled dose of what 2010 is expected to be like for Apple.
Apple’s secrecy is legendary by now. They are so good that other companies should probably learn from them. Thanks to this obsessive need for secrecy, we hardly know anything about what Apple has got cooking in their labs. So we subsist on sifting through rumors. This of course generates unimaginable hype for Apple but they are a company that has perfected the art of under-promising and over-delivering. From profit projections to devices, they do it every time. So we are always in a dilemma about how much to stretch our imagination.
I will try to keep mine on a tight leash for the following list and give you the things that I think Apple is really about to do.

It is Saturday again, time for the weekend mood to set in and to help you along the way we have this freshly baked Apple round-up just for you. Apple has had a great week. Things went uphill from the very start when they reported their (through the roof) Q3 earnings and then we had the roster of new Macs to savour.
The rest of the week has been pretty small compared to those two things but they have been large enough to carry us through the entire week. And make no mistakes, we will still be hearing about the new Macs two weeks down the line and may be more.
Get to the other side for your piece of this delicious pie.

Apple has confused a lot of people with the naming scheme of their new line of portables. It seems like they are trying to free up the ‘MacBook’ name for something else. In any case, now we have the 3 MacBook Pro notebooks, and the lowest one is a 13-inch model.
The 13-inch MacBook Pro does not have a dedicated graphics solution like the other two models do. But other than that, this package is really hard to beat. In comparison to the older (white) 13-inch model from Apple, this one has more of everything.
It has more memory, more storage, higher graphics power, stronger casing and a really long battery life. Now with a feature list like that and a price of $1199, the all-new 13-inch MacBook Pro is a really tough notebook to beat.
