Apple's Refreshed MacBook Pro
Just in case your iPad hasn't totally replaced your need for a computer, Apple has done some renovating in the guts of their unibody MacBook Pro laptops. All three sizes got the make-over treatment, including the 13", 15" and 17" models. The 13" gets improved graphics and a faster Core 2 Duo processor, as well as the ability to crank out up to 10 hours of battery life on a single charge. The big brothers get even swankier new processors in the form of Intel's Core i5 and i7s, which should churn out Oregon Trail like you've never seen it. Plus, the 15" and 17" with something they call Automatic graphics twitching. Basically, it only relies on the power-huntry GPU when you're using greedy programs like Photoshop. That means insane battery life and extra bonus points with the environmental conservation nerds. Also, if you're thinking about buying us one as an earth day present, spring for the $1,300 512 GB solid state hard drive option. We promise to send a really nice thank you note...eventually.

Very good but as usual, storage will be too small too soon.
