Apple Earlier this year, Apple, after a long wait, updated its pro line of laptops by introducing the MacBook Pro, the Intel-powered equivalent of the PowerBook. MacSupport, together with Apple Netherlands, was so kind as to provide OSNews with a MacBook Pro for review purposes. Since Adam bought a MacBook Pro for himself only a few days earlier, we decided to review the machines together. Here are our findings.

"Why do you think Apple is not going to make OS X be installable on any machine with an EFI?"

EFI isn't even required to run Mac OS X.

"* Hefty price? Before my Macbook Pro I had a Sony VAIO for £1500 and it was chunky, loud, ran Windows, had no camera, didn't have the digital optical ports, didn't have a hella cool backlit keyboard, didn't have ambient light sensors and most of all didn't have a magnetic power adapter. For the £1430 I paid for my Macbook Pro it was a friggin bargain."

humm, you didn't buy it this year or a week before you got your MBP, did you?

this is today's 1500£ Sony VAIO:
