Macbooks are designed to cater to the Macbook Air customer base but then again compared to Macbook Air it still lags in sheer computing power mainly due to its Intel M processor. Would someone cleverer than I be able to explain this to me please?Ģ016 Macbook is not a work horse but your Macbook Pro 2012 is. My old MacBook Pro had a 850Gb HDD (replaced after the original one failed 2 years in). Surely these can't be the same processors that my mid-range 2012 MacBook Pro uses?Īlso whats with the small size of HD drives now. On top of that the 12" MacBook that I was thinking of getting uses a 1.1GHz Core m3 processor and 8Gb of RAM. I expected to find that the processors would be completely new now, but was surprised to find the current range of MacBook Pro's using i5 or i7 processors still and the same 8Gb of RAM. The Superdrive no longer works and its doesn't have a Retina screen and I would like something lighter and smaller for work that starts up quicker so wanted to upgrade. I have a 2012 MacBook Pro 13" with a 2.9GHz Core i7 processor running 8Gb 1600MHz DDR3 RAM which from my memory was kind of middle of the range at the time and cost be around AU$2000-2200. I am looking to get a new laptop, but I'm a bit confused by the processors of the new series of MacBooks.
