At today’s “Back to the Mac” event the focus was on MacBook Air notebooks. But Apple also added a little more house power to the Macbook Pro line with new processor options for its 15- and 17-inch MacBook Pros. Customers can now choose to upgrade their notebooks with 2.8GHz Core i7 CPUs.
Upgrading the 17-inch MacBook Pro to the 2.8GHz chip will bring the price up by $400 from the base price of a 2.53GHz Core i7 unit. The 2.66GHz upgrade is also still available. 15-inch Macbook Pro can go from the 2.66GHz Core i7CPU to the 2.8GHz version for an extra $200. The new upgraded version are shipping now from Apple’s web store.
