Price: $1,999 USD (2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo) or $2,499 USD (2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo)Īpple overhauled much of the MBP’s design in 2008 after the introduction of the MacBook Air. The first-gen was tweaked and updated twice a year: first, in October 2006, when Apple brought Intel’s Core 2 Duo processors and larger hard drives, giving the computers a notable performance upgrade and then again in June 2007, when the company introduced the LED-backlit screens, which helped improve the notebook’s battery life.
Apple initially offered two different models of the MBP: one priced at $1,999 for more casual users, and one for spec and performance-inclined users that came in at $2,499 USD. While the MBP marked a significant improvement in terms of performance, its design was only a marginal improvement on the PowerBook: for example, the laptop was only a sliver thinner than its predecessor, coming in with a 1-inch thickness and weighing 5.6 pounds. Apple’s innovative charger port used a slight-but-secure magnetic connection that connected the charger to its device but also disconnected when tugged, leaving the notebook safe and sound. The first-gen MBP also introduced MagSafe Jobs and his design team found that laptops and other devices were being jerked off of workspaces when people tripped over their charger cords.
