I still hate the name and I won’t be getting one any time soon for lots of reasons (2,499 of them, to be precise) but I am very glad to read that the MacBook Pro is a solid machine and working well.
Pros: Classic design; runs Universal applications quickly; bright screen; integrated iSight camera; comes with Front Row application and remote; innovative MagSafe power connector; improved wireless range.
Cons: Non-native apps can run slowly; optical drive inferior to PowerBook G4; no FireWire 800 port; intermittent processor noise on some systems; screen slightly shorter than PowerBook.
