    Apple Mac is the computer brand of choice for many photographers. In my own studio I use a 13-inch MacBook, chosen for its light, compact and travel-friendly yet powerful attributes. However, the new 15-inch MacBook Pro has a little more screen real estate, and the advantage of a faster processor and a FireWire 800 port (13-inch MacBooks are USB 2.0 only). Read more

    • Stylish, Durable, Sizzling performance, Excellent battery life, Relatively cool running
    • Cons? What cons? This thing rocks!

    Apple's 15-inch MacBook Pro makes only minor tweaks to the previous version, but cutting prices and swapping the ExpressCard slot for an SD card slot are enough to make it a solid improvement over its predecessor. Read more

    • Price cut from previous version, New SD card slot, Keeps the same solid unibody construction and oversize trackpad
    • Loses the ExpressCard slot, Switching GPUs not as seamless as it should be

    You know those Microsoft laptop hunter spots ? Apple may already have responded with TV spots of their own , but these MacBook Pros strike back at Microsoft better than any ad can: by doing. Read more

    We really liked the 17-inch MacBook Pro, it's a great machine that delivers the goods in terms of performance and design. Despite its size as a 17-inch desktop replacement, Apple has managed to keep a svelte and slim figure that's barely any thicker than the 15-inch model. Of course, there are some drawbacks from the design, and we're sure the non-removable battery is probably on top of your mind. Read more
