The MacBook with the Intel GMA X1300 graphics (which isn't that
powerful) is still in one of the models. That model was dropped in
price to $999. A new model supplants it which has the new lower cost
case design, backlit keyboard, LED backlighting for the display, and a
new kind of Chipset/GPU Nvidia chip that is supposed to be 5 times more
powerful than the GMA chip.
I love the dual Nvidia chips in the MacBook Pro 13", it uses Hybrid SLI
to work a 9400M GT and 9600M GT together in tandem for massively
improved graphics performance transforming the MacBook Pro into a gaming
rig.
They've also updated the MacBook Air by replacing the GMA X1300 chip
with the same Nvidia chip that's in the new MacBook.
Now all they need to do is:
* Improve the 17" MacBook Pro specs to the new 13"'s specs.
* Design a Mac Mini that replaces that crappy GMA X1300 chip for the new
Nvidia that's on in the MacBook to make it a serious contender.
* Design a tablet version of the MacBook and/'or MacBook Pro.
