The MacBook Pro is a line of Macintosh portable computers by Apple Inc. that was first introduced in January 2006 at the Macworld Expo. The MacBook Pro is positioned at the high end of the MacBook family.
On April 13, 2010, Apple updated the MacBook Pro line. Intel Core i5 and Core i7 CPUs were introduced in the 15" and 17" models, while the 13" retained the Core 2 Duo with a speed increase. For video cards, the 13" gained an integrated nVidia GeForce 320M GPU with 256 MB of shared memory, while the 15" and 17" models were upgraded to the GeForce GT 330M (with either 256 or 512 megabytes of dedicated memory). The 15" and 17" models also have an integrated Intel GPU that is built into the Core i5 and i7 processors. All models come with 4 GB of system memory.There are currently three MacBook Pro models, the 13", 15" and 17" ... Read more

User Review
I have had this computer for three weeks now, and waited to write a review until I had fully tested it. The first one arrived with a bad keyboard, was sent back to Apple for replacement.
