With all that being said, even I am over the "I need Apple to support BluRay on laptops like the PCs do" whining. I have a meager collection of just over 100 Blu-Ray titles, a PS3, and a standalone player connected to my HT setup. Ok, so I love Blu-Ray just as much as the next Blu-Ray fan. It is frustrating being an apple consumer, they seem to like to decide what they will allow their consumers to do, instead of letting us decide on our own options. I would be buying a brand new MBP 15" Matte screen, loaded memory, if:Ģ- Blu - Ray output could go out via lightnight bolt to HDMI cable. I compile all day long, but I still don't think I'd notice it. I just don't think I could possibly notice a different of the other one. I scored a 5.35 in cinebench and 40fps in the opengl of cb. I actually just received my 2.2 i7 15" MBP today. Apple's online store seems to imply that the faster processor has a higher Turbo Boost speed when it says, "You can upgrade the processor in your MacBook Pro to the 2.3GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 processor, featuring 8MB 元 cache and Turbo Boost speeds up to 3.40GHz." But they don't say anywhere was the limit is for the 2.2 GHz processor.Īnyways, Turbo Boost on the 2.2 is 3.30GHz. If the 2.3 GHz processor also includes higher Turbo Boost speeds for non-parallelized tasks, that would help better justify the price increase. After reading the descriptions of the tests in the links above, it does not appear their tests would include the performance of Turbo Boost since most of their tests seem to saturate all 4 cores in the CPU. I'll still be curious to see direct comparisons using actual systems on real-world tasks. Still of questionable value when you are adding at 10-15% premium. Oh, but your math is off, from their results it's a 4% difference.
