When Apple released their latest Santa Rosa based MacBook Pros, eyes moved towards the 17″ model with the amazing 1920×1200 supported resolution. If you’ve debating whether or not it’s worth the extra $100, Mac World firmly believes so. The author is so impressed, he compares it to moving from Standard-Def TV to a High-Def model.
I’m still a little wary on such a high-resolution on a small monitor, when comparing the fact that this is the resolution seen on 24-inch+ monitors. It might be one of those things that you will just need to see in person.
Oh, and did I mention that screen? You know the difference between regular TV and high-def TV? That’s what it feels like using this model. Not that the standard screen offered by Apple is a slouch; 1,680-by-1,050 pixels is plenty fine for most users. But for those of us who always want faster, bigger, more, Apple has created what I’d call the MBP Ultimate.
