arstechnica.com — The 2006 NAB conference is fast approaching and as any self-respectiing maclot knows, it can only mean one thing: new pro products. The Register is reporting that the new 17" MacBook Pro could debut as early as this Sunday and sport the 2.16GHz Core Duo with an outside chance of the new 2.33GHz Intel Core Duo making an appearance.

@geminitojanusLast time I checked, right clicking only took one hand, while Control-Clicking took two. Let me know if this has somehow changed. I don't see how Mac people can praise the mighty mouse by saying "it takes some getting used to". I want a mouse. I don't want one that takes some getting used too. Its three buttons and a scroll wheel. I bought a mouse with those specs in 1999 from MS, and it works great, and didn't take any "getting used to". I think Apple took a uselessly novel idea (using capacitence to sense clicks) that was way too expensive (buttons work fine), and compromised it to trim down the costs and boost profit margins (making it work with only one button at a time).

17" is too big for me. I know that the article mentioned that the 2.33Ghz processor would only be available on the 17". Could I get the 2.33Ghz in a 15"? That is what I really want.

@Jozer99Are you just talking out of your ass, or did Apple state this somewhere?
