  Apple MacBook Pro 15-inch 2.5GHz
  
  Review summary: This truly is a five-star laptop, thanks to the performance boost and array of enhancements, including that intuitive trackpad
  
  Pros: Beautiful, detailed display; Luxurious sprung keyboard; World-class processing speeds; Doubled video RAM; Lower-power processor and screen; Excellent connection options
  
  Verdict: The Penryn chips can carry a larger L2 cache, circuitry that speeds access to commonly used data, and this has changed. It has dropped to 3MB (from 4MB) on the entry-level 2.4GHz MacBook Pro, while being raised to 6MB on the other two models

  Review summary: apple macbook pro (2008 edition, 2.4ghz) review: A solid, if predictable, upgrade to the MacBook Pro line, but noteworthy for stealing the MacBook Air's best feature -- expanded gesture controls for the touch pad.
  
  Pros: Updated CPUs, Improved battery life, Adds touch pad gestures from the MacBook Air
  
  Cons: Small performance premium over the cheaper 13-inch MacBook, Only 90 days of toll-free technical support, Still no SD card reader
