So How Do The New Macbooks Compare To Old Macbooks In Terms of Size, Weight, Dimensions?

Published by on October 14, 2008

I’m really excited about the launch of the new Apple Macbooks, but I haven’t seen a good comparison on size weight etc between the new and old lines. Finally I’ve put together the list for you to help make your decision.

Right now I have a 15″ Macbook Pro, and I’m not sure if I should be looking at the new 13″ Macbook Pro (if it’ll be light enough) or just look for a re-up to my current 15″ line.

What are you guys thinking? Go for the 13″ or keep the 15″ — here are the specs below..
