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.
