I don't know what you refer to with SATA controller change. There is always the same 3gb/s sata and only the SSD changes. The one Apple uses is apparently the Toshiba HG2. It does not have a controller that is as fast as Indilinx or the former pe…

I doubt pricing is such a big issue. Apple is not really in present in the budget area. AMD is at the moment just no where near intels performance. Maybe those AMD guys only mean that Apple is to adopt more ATI GPUs in the near future. The only th…

I think the difference between 2,4Ghz and 2,66 is definitely not worth it. Core i7 or i5 are a new Nehalem based Architecture from Intel. The C2D in the 13" are still the old architecture that has been here for about 2 years now. Corei iX are sign…

It is true they should put some brain power into figuring out how to make a decent side panel instead of wasting precious horizontal space. In 16:9 that becomes even more ridiculous. But on the other hand on 16:10 the ribbon is still okay especiall…

The biggest difference should be in 3D and GPGPU power since the current GPU 9600M GT is really old. The new CPUs are significantly faster if they can utilize there reborn Hyper Threading but some of the performance increase is off set by a slower …

Also since the Socket is different you might be able to upgarde a Nehalem later while you will have to buy a new Mac Pro to upgrade the from a C2Q. Difference between Nehalem and C2Quad is quite significant. The Memory Controller is on DIE and a lo…

Come on how is this new. Transflective screens already exist and I think in a Toshiba Notebook they already had them. There is no need to do this weird thing here. They work very well. This is a bogus patent and I doubt it will be approved. The…

I also think the iPad argument is wrong. Those two products don't really compete in functionality and with all the attention the iPad gets new MBP can only benefit from it. The rest might be true. Maybe something just gave them difficulties. Afte…

Also what the security concerned shouldn't forget is that no SSL support means you simply can't load SSL encrypted stuff it is not simply dissable and everything suddenly happens unencrypted. The full Opera mobile simply switches off the Turbo and d…

+1 to removing optical drive and putting in space for a optional SSD. No built in SSD as I want a Sandforce and not some jMicron crap. More battery life as the normal HDD is usually powered down. Enough storage space for everyone without carrying ar…

I also thing there will be no USB 3.0 in the next generation because it is not in the Intel Chipset and I doubt Apple puts a seperate Chip on the board to enable it. That isn't really an Apple like move. FW3200 is something I doubt will ever make it…

The highend Desktop parts GTX 470 and GTX 480 come on the 26th. Mobile parts are not likely to arrive anytime soon. Although it is not completely impossible I think the likelyhood of mobile 400 Series Cards in Q2 2010 is about 3%. Q3, Q4 or Q1 2011 …

I think they should find a way to transfer all the heat to the display cover. If you make this one slightly higher and rip it, you could get a big passive cooling unit. The benefit would be a very quiet cooling (aid at the very least) and you heat u…

Little Chip explanation. Arrendale is 2 Core and basicly a 45nm shrink of the old Intel Northbridge (with the new Intel HD GPU) and only the cores of the Nehalem Design. The Quad Core Clarksfield Core i7 are much lower clock and although they …

I think this whole article is ridiculous even if it were all true. I own an iphone but also had an old Trekstor mp3 player with an oled screen, which could only display blue, orange and black in a low pixel density. Still if I could choose between …

This thread is about GPUs and you are whining about Blue Ray. wtf Too add some whining that is more appropriate to the thread. It seems to be quite unlikely that we get faster ATI GPUs but instead Apple will use the in comparison for the TDP slowe…

Some people here don't seem to understand how Opera Turbo works. It does not simple render the page on the server and send it as a jpg to the Browser. That is ridiculous all the CSS Information, Links everything would be gone or would have to be tr…

I do know that the 720 is not in the T410. It was just an example of a chip that in my opinion is not a real notebook chip. I guess I overreacted a little as I expected some significant battery life imporvements. Here is a T410 review and this w…
