Giz Explains: Why Does the New MacBook Pro Have Two Graphics Cards?
The biggest update to the new MacBooks—on the inside anyway—is their graphical muscle, which has been hooked up with some Barry Bonds-level steroids. Apple ditched Intel's crummy integrated graphics and chipset (basically the traffic controller between the processor and everything else) entirely, opting for a new one from Nvidia that combines the chipset and a GPU on a single chip—the GeForce 9400M. The MacBook Pro, being more Pro-erer than the MacBook, now rocks two graphics cards—the integrated 9400M and a separate, beefier GeForce 9600M GT. If that swirl of numbers, letters and BS is confusing, here's what's up. More » -

New MacBooks Will Totally Tell Mom If You Take Them Swimming
The new MacBook and MacBook Pro don't just want to impress you with their fancy new fabrication techniques, unibody designs and bolstered performance: they want to make you more honest, at least when it comes to reporting water damage.

Spyshot Shows What Looks to Be The New MacBook Pro
As is always the case, this undercover iPhone pic of what appears to be the new MacBook Pro is too blurry to rule for sure one way or the other. But as far as spyshots go, this one's looking pretty solid. And just like with the presumed-fake-and-then-verified-true iPod nano leaked pics from last time (coincidentally also sent in by our friend JR here), it matches what's been popping up in even more dubious pics over the last few weeks—a more rounded, piano-black bezel, MacBook Air-like keyboard and a large (although not glass) trackpad (and as many of you commenters have also asked, where is the trackpad button?). We'll know for sure tomorrow at 10AM PST—stay tuned until then. [Thanks, JR!] -

Nvidia Launch Points to Possible October 14 MacBook Intro
It seems like the stars are aligning for that rumored MacBook intro event on October 14. Nvidia, which was supposed to launch their MCP7A chipset on September 30, has announced the chipset will actually be available right after the alleged Apple event. Apparently, the new chipset—which is rumored to be part of the new MacBooks—bests Intel's own G45 in the graphics and audio department. More »
