[QUOTE="Jack Orion, post: 928441, member: 282495"] Well I bought a Macbook Pro 13 about six weeks ago, I'm very happy with it, but I'm a little peeved that the new macbook is basically the same model, with a larger hard drive and minus a couple of things (firewire 800, sd card slot, backlit keyboard). I intend to use the firewire port for an external hard drive so that's one benefit, and I like the backlit keyboard, but are these really worth an extra £100? They're clearly going to boost the specs on the MacBook Pro 13 soon as I'm not really sure how they can classify it as 'pro' when it's virtually the same as the macbook... Obviously I know this is the risk when you buy new computers, but does no-one else think it's a little cheeky to bring out a 'pro' model and then, 4 months later, upgrade the entry level model to virtually the same (with a larger HD)?
