The 13.3-inch MacBook Pro (view larger).
As
with previous models, the MacBook Pro features a precision unibody
enclosure crafted from a single block of aluminum, creating a thin and
light mobile computing workhorse (less than 1 inch thin and just 4.5
pounds) that's also highly durable. It includes a 13.3-inch, LED-backlit
glass display as well as a glass trackpad that doesn't include a button
(for larger tracking area) that features Apple's Multi-Touch
technology. You'll also get up to 7 hours of battery life while on the
go.
The MacBook Pro also now includes both a high-speed
Thunderbolt port and two USB 3 ports, enabling you to easily connect to
external displays and a wide variety of high performance peripherals.
This
version of the 13.3-inch MacBook Pro (model MD101LL/A) features a 2.5
GHz Core i5 dual-core processor, 500 GB hard drive, and 4 GB of
installed RAM. Other features include an 8x SuperDrive, ultra-fast
Wireless-N Wi-Fi networking, Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity, an SDXC card
slot, and a FireWire 800 port (see full specifications below).
