There\u2019s not much new about them, except that they\u2019re sporting some faster processors. The 13\u201d model now has the option of a dual-core 2.8GHz Core i7 or a 2.4GHz Core i5 dualie. The 15\u201d model has stock options of quad-core i7 processors in 2.2GHz and 2.4GHz, with a 2.5GHz option available as a custom configuration. The 17\u201d model now comes stock with the aforementioned 2.4GHz i7 quad-core processor, but also has a 2.5GHz option available.<\/p>\n<p>Other than the processor boost, a faster graphics card on the 15\u201d and 17\u201d models, and\u00a0 a small bump in stock hard drive size on the 13\u201d to a minimum of 500GB, the specs on these MacBook Pros are effectively the same as the models that came out earlier this year.<\/p>\n<p>That means that <a href=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/NewsRoom\/Framework.cfm?page=PR\/mbpmemory_022411.html\">all the upgrades, compatibility,<\/a> and installation videos for the Early 2011 MacBook Pros should be equally as valid for the Late 2011 models.<\/p>\n<p>As for <a href=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/10433-macbook-pro-2011-models-and-sata-3-0-6-0gbs-update-5272011\">the other issues that have popped up around the 2011 Macbook Pros<\/a>, we\u2019ll be checking those when the new \u2018Books come in tomorrow, and will post our findings as we get them.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apple released some updated MacBook Pros today.
