Clearing up specifics on the MacBook Pro

Laurie A. Duncan is feeding us a few more details from the Macworld floor on the new MacBook Pros that I thought were quite interesting:
  • Macbook has one FW 400 port, no FW 800. I guess that ZDNet post was at least on to something
  • no pcmcia slot - new ExpressCard/34 slot, whatever that is
  • Hard drive is SATA now, not IDE
  • Magnetic power adapter and port is very very cool! Snaps nice and tight
  • Display now also uses magnetics to close, clasp is gone
We'll publish more details as soon as soon as they roll in.

Tip of the Day

To get an instant map to any address, just go to your Address Book and right click on the address field of any one of your contacts and select "Map Of." The address will then be revealed in Google Maps on Safari. You can do the same if a data detector determines there is an address in an e-mail in Mail.
