Hp Envy 13
Best Laptop Review
Is the Macbook Pro worth it?
I’m an engineering student so naturally, I would want a PC instead of a Mac for my engineering software needs. But I also want a nice looking, slim laptop that I can bring to school for notes and entertainment. I can always use my old laptop or desktop for my engineering needs. So I decided that the Macbook Pro 13 is pretty fit for my needs and wants. And right now, there’s a rather awesome sale for university students where the price is significantly reduced and a free iPod touch is included.
However, the one big thing that’s bugging me is the screen. Apple is still using the old 16:10 aspect ratio with 1280×800 max resolution while most other laptops of its price range offers the new 16:9 aspect ratio with higher resolution that can handle 780p playback, like the Hp Envy 14. Will Apple ever introduce the newer 16:10 aspect ratio to the Macbook in the next generation? When does usually a new generation of Macbook release? Near Christmas or the beginning of the new Fiscal year?
It does not state the actual ratio on there for the higher resolutions listed. I have copied them from their Apple site and you can even check them out via the link directly if you want to do that too.
# Supported resolutions: 1440 by 900 (native), 1280 by 800, 1152 by 720, 1024 by 640, and 800 by 500 pixels at 16:10 aspect ratio; 1024 by 768, 800 by 600, and 640 by 480 pixels at 4:3 aspect ratio; 1024 by 768, 800 by 600, and 640 by 480 pixels at 4:3 aspect ratio stretched; 720 by 480 pixels at 3:2 aspect ratio; 720 by 480 pixels at 3:2 aspect ratio stretched
# Optional 15.4-inch (diagonal) LED-backlit widescreen display with 1680 by 1050 pixels (glossy or antiglare) – http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_mac/family/macbook_pro?mco=MTAyNTQzMzk
Additional information on the graphic cards – http://www.apple.com/macbookpro/performance.html
Remember they are Dual Core 2, however using the new 32 nanometer processor with the Intel i-series (i3′s, i5′s, and i7′s).
Have you seen this information? Macintosh computers have been geared more and more for generalized usage and you can always Allocate the Memory to each Application inclusive of OS’s as well. For OS X to run it does not need as many applications/programs to keep it going like Windows does. Therefore uses less resources of the hardware and of the operating system just like Unix and Linux runs far less than Windows on resources.
Btw.. I know you did not ask for this information and if you are interested about learning more. Perhaps you did not know these things too. (look for my answers on each of these links). http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Ag8NxN09_VHbprF.SMCHmZLsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20100814205853AAYtdGP&show=7#profile-info-WwSTwDo3aa
Remember to pick best answer, thanks!
