This generation of the 15-inch MacBook Pro features the 2.33GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, processor, which is up to 39% faster than its predecessor. It has a built-in iSight for instant video conferencing on the move. And Front Row with Apple Remote to dazzle everyone in the room. And while the MacBook Pro packs power, it certainly doesn't pack pounds. It is pro performance in a portable package. Only one inch thin and 5.6 pounds, respectively, the 15-inch MacBook Pro is amongst the thinnest, lightest notebook in their display class.<BR><BR><strong>Performance squared</strong><br> MacBook Pro is built on the revolutionary Intel Core 2 Duo — which packs the power of two processor cores inside a single chip. It provides 4MB of Smart Cache, L2 cache that can be shared between the cores as needed. It delivers higher performance in 2D and 3D graphics, video editing, and music encoding. But the new engine is only part of the story. MacBook Pro boasts both a FireWire 800 port and a double-layer burning SuperDrive. Ultimate speed, performance, and connectivity. To go. That's MacBook Pro.<BR><BR><strong>iSight to behold</strong><br> Sit down. Click someone's iChat icon. Video conference from anywhere in the world. Though you can barely see it, there's an iSight camera built into the thin bezel just above the display. So now you can conference with associates during the day and chat with the kids at night. iChat AV lets you video chat with up to three other people simultaneously. And when you go head to head, you'll see your colleagues clearly, at VGA resolution.<BR><BR><strong>Road show</strong><br> MacBook Pro delivers the Front Row media experience, making it easy (and rather spectacular) to showcase your latest creations. Whether you're at the client's office, on location, or back at your hotel room, just use the Apple Remote to control your videos, music, movies, and more. Front Row lets you quickly navigate through your work and play from anywhere in the room. You can even use the Apple Remote to navigate through Keynote presentations. <BR><BR><strong>Processor and memory:</strong> 2.33GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 4MB on-chip shared L2 cache running 1:1 with processor speed 2GB (two SO-DIMMs) 667MHz frontside bus<BR><BR><strong>Expansion: </strong> One FireWire 400 port at up to 400 Mbps One FireWire 800 port at up to 800 Mbps Two 480-Mbps USB 2.0 ports ExpressCard/34 slot<BR><BR><strong>Security</strong> Kensington cable lock slot<BR><BR><strong>Battery and power</strong> 60-watt-hour lithium-polymer battery (with integrated charge indicator LEDs) providing up to 5.0 hours of battery life(1) 85W MagSafe Power Adapter with cable management system MagSafe power adapter port<BR><BR><strong>Communications</strong> Built-in 54-Mbps AirPort Extreme wireless networking (802.11g standard)(2) Built-in Bluetooth 2.0+EDR (Enhanced Data Rate) Built-in 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet (RJ-45 connector)<BR><BR><strong>Audio</strong> Combined optical digital in
