I think both the new MacBook and the MacBook pro are great. Aesthetically Apple nailed it. The increased graphics capacity will no doubt be a hit with the graphic design and production crowd. The screen looks mint and the trackpad will no doubt probably become standard on all mac laptops from now on. Seems everyone is always wanting that "something more" but for someone who was holding out from buying a MacBook because I knew new ones were on the horizon, these are excellent.
