Things Are Looking Brighter

MacBook Pro makes your ideas more enlightening, with a brighter screen than its predecessors. See blacker blacks, whiter whites, and many more colors in between on a brilliant 15.4-inch, 1440 by 900 or 17-inch, 1680 by 1050 digital display. Enjoy a nuanced view simply unavailable on other portables. Enabling subtle shifts in color space is just one way MacBook Pro puts you ahead of the curve.





iSight Camera

Artfully placed in the MacBook Pro display bezel is an iSight camera. This small camera lets you use iChat AV, iMovie HD, and Photo Booth to make big statements anywhere. So shout it from the rooftops. On location. Backstage. Back home. Show your point of view. Share it with the world.

SuperDrive
The SuperDrive up front reads and writes both DVDs and CDs. Back up all your data and then watch a movie when you're done.




Design Theory

At just one inch thin, MacBook Pro defies reason, and probably several laws of physics. But each element inside has been carefully considered to condense all the modern mobile amenities into the tightest of quarters.

The new power adapter with MagSafe connector is just that: a magnetic connection instead of a physical one. So, tripping over a power cord wont send MacBook Pro flying off a table or desk; the cord simply breaks cleanly away, without damage to either the cord or the system. As an added nicety, this means less wear on the connectors.






Bluetooth

Use built-in Bluetooth to connect to your PDA or cell phone. Sync addresses. Download pictures from your cell phone. Add a special effect. Send an SMS using your MacBook Pro
