Hi All

I was thinking of upgrading to the MBP13 from my old MB Black. However I really can't see what you get for the extra money. A little more CPU speed and just a small amount of disk space.

Does anyone know of any benchmarks that show that the differences?

Cheers

Jez.

It should be a bit faster overall even with just a slight increase in clock speed, you get faster ddr3 ram and an upgrated graphics card ... and the cpu on yout MB Black might not support 64bit, depends on what it is

a big difference should be the battery, as the new 13" are promising up to 10 hours of battery life

and of course, the new design, not that it actually does anything if you don't count the improved touchpad with 4finger swipes

I would wait for the new release on the new MBs and then decide.
