We recently received a new 17-inch Santa Rosa-based MacBook Pro. It has a 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor 4GB of RAM, and a 160GB hard drive.
In the video, we take a quick look at the MacBook Pro. Specifically, the model we have has a glossy screen (you can choose between a matte or glossy screen), and it also has the $100 option for the 1,920-by-1,200 pixel resolution. The base $2,799 has a native resolution of 1,680-by-1,050 pixels.
We have a full review with benchmarks coming soon.
REQUIREMENTS: QuickTime 7 or later to watch the video.

Keep the video reviews

Keep the video reviews coming. I need to see this stuff. I also need to know which are new features, and which are just features that Roman really likes. Also, I think Roman should wear a Chef's hat when handling the cafeteria tray.
Good points

Thanks for the feedback, Bloopy. And you make a very good point: I'll try to remember to distinguish between new features (facts) and my opinions. Unfortunately, I have a big head (literally), so finding a chef's hat in my size is somewhat difficult ;-)

Nice review,
I think it would be awesome to get the podcast video reviews in the feed from iTunes. I like watching that kind of stuff on my TV with my Apple TV.
