One important item left out of the comparison between the MacBook upgrade and the 13″ MacBook Pro is the backlit keyboard on the Pro. Before last year’s upgrade of the 13″ to the Pro line, the backlit keyboard was $200 extra. I was going to spend the extra, so was thrilled when it was added for free. It is a feature I do really love.
Very nice podcast! ezflash
