What is the difference between Macbook Pro late 2008 & early 2009 ???

I just bought a Macbook Pro on 1/1/09. I'm assuming I got a Late 2008. What is the difference between Macbook Pro late 2008 & early 2009 ???
-Rany

The "late 2008" macbook pro refers to the new 15 inch MBP currently out, and the early 2009 refers to it's big brother, the 17 inch which is due to come out in the near future.

    What is the difference between MacBook pro 2011 and 2012

    understanding that at the time of the question, there has not been any Macbook Pro 2012, now it is later and there is.
    The difference is:
    -CPU being used (2011 models: Sandy Bridge, 2012 models: Ivy Bridge)
    -Graphics (2011: intel 3000 + on 15"/17" ATI, 2012: intel 4000 + on 5"/17" nvidia Geforce 650M)
    -USB (2011: USB2.0 only, 2012: USB3.0)
    -Bluetooth (2011. 2.1 + EDR, 2012: 4.0)
    Ivy Bridge CPUs are smaller and are a little bit more energy-efficient.
    Other than that, currently the devices are not much different in respect to performance (Apple's graphics driver performance is known to increase during upgrades, though, so the performance gap may widen up)

  • Whats's the difference between MacBook Pro 13 and 13.3 ?

    This, Whats's the difference between MacBook Pro 13 and 13.3 ?

    Firstly, you are not in MacBook Pro forum, so you need to get your bearings.
    2nd check the specs page
    http://www.apple.com/support/macbookpro
    Then Bing/Google for reviews, Ars is always good but dozens have done one.
    2011 brings Intel Sandy Bridge processor boards, Thunderbolt, SATA3 (6G) along with options for SSD and much more RAM (can save buying RAM and doing the upgrade yourself)

    No difference other than one is for the Russian market. Specs on both are the same, standard Apple Store issue versions.
    Of course the screen choice of anti-glare, glossy, high res or low res is not included.
    The default is likely the cheap glossy and low res.
    MC723LL/A  - 2.2Ghz MacBook Pro (15" Early 2011) $2,199
    Display 13,3'' Dual-Core i5 2.3GHz/4GB/320GB/HD Graphics/SD, Russian (MC700RS/A)

    what is the difference between macbook pro ME865B/A and ME865AE/A   ???

    The first model was originally sold in the UK or Ireland, while the second came from a different country, probably one in the Middle East. They're operationally identical.

  • MacBook Pro Late 2008 - Early 2009

    Hi,
    I've got a MacBook Pro unibody late 2008-early 2009 with Intel Core 2 Duo processor. I would like to know if my processor is 32bit or 64bit so that I will decide to use 32bit software or 64bit software.
    Thanks in advance.
    Giacomo

    Hi Giacomo,
    every Intel Core 2 Duo processor is a 64-bit processor.
    Only the very first Intel Core Duo (without the '2') are only 32-bit processors.
    Regards
    Stefan

    AirPlay Mirror in OS X Mountain Lion, allows the user to connect a MacBook Pro to a TV using Apple TV, but only if the MacBook Pro is early 2011 or newer. My MacBook Pro is 2008, 2.5 GHz Core 2 Duo with 4GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM. What am I missing that would allow me to use AirPlay Mirror, and is it possible for me to upgrade my MBP to early 2011 specs?

    About four years of hardware change. You csnnot upgrade your hardware. You can simply buy a new computer or find an alternative:
    About AirPlay and Airplay Mirroring
    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). For non-qualifying Macs you can try using Air Parrot.
    Several Apple Articles Regarding AirPlay

    About AirPlay Mirroring in OS X Mountain Lion

    Troubleshooting AirPlay and AirPlay Mirroring
    Using AirPlay
    Thanks to the $15 Beamer, AirPlay streaming is still possible on Macs  that do not support Airplay and mirroring.
    Another solution is the Air Parrot.

  • What is the difference between Satellite Pro 4200 and 4300 series?

    As mentioned in another thread, I have a SP4220XCDT that died on me.
    I bought a mobo from ebay which was from a 4290, and today it arrived, but the problem was that it has a seemingly fixed CPU, which stands out much less from the board than the one on the 4220 board, and therefore does not connect with the cooling mechanism from my 4220.
    At least something comes on when I start up now, but unfortunately it doesn't get past the Toshiba screen which tells you to press F2 for boot sequence.
    Having also spent money on memory and a new cpu, I don't want to let this one go, and have seen a motherboard available suitable for a 4320/40/60 - anyone know if this will fit in with the rest of my 4220? It doesn't have a cpu so presumably will have the same mechanism as the 4220 mainboard.
    I'm assuming that these might be compatible since I have managed to find a pdf of a service manual which covers both the 4200 and 4300, although unfortunately the first page is missing so I dont' know if that highlights any differences.
    It's frustrating that there are no pdfs available for these older models, at least with specs on them, and it's very hard to find any info.
    As usual, thanks for any help!

    Hi
    As far as I know both series uses the Intel Mobile Pentium III microprocessor with MMX?Technology.
    I found out these details:
    Satellite 4260 Series: Mobile Pentium III 450MHz
    Satellite 4270 Series: Mobile Intel Celeron 500MHz
    Satellite 4280 Series: Mobile Pentium III 500MHz
    Satellite 4320 Series: Mobile Pentium III 600MHz featuring Intel SpeedStep Technology
    Satellite 4340 Series: Mobile Pentium III 650MHz featuring Intel SpeedStep Technology
    The notebooks measures should be also the same. So in my opinion it should be possible to use the same motherboard in Satellite Pro 4200 and 4300.

    What's the difference between MacBook Pro with flash storage and MacBook Pro with solid state drive?

    A SSD is packaged like any other notebook drive. Flash storage uses a different design and layout that connects directly to the motherboard using PCIe. It is faster than a normal SSD.

  • What's the difference between MBP mid 2010 and MBP retina?

    Hey
    can anybody give me the main difference or if it's possible detailed of the difference between macbook pro mid 2010 15 inch and macbook pro 2013 retina display 15 inch?
    thanks

    Also:
    The 15" Retina systems come with SSD storage instead of a hard drive.
    The 15" Retina systems do NOT come with an optical (CD/DVD) drive.
    The 15: Retina systems have two Thunderbolt ports and two USB3 ports.
    Both come with various speed and type processors, partly overlapping. I believe the Retina tops out higher in total processing power.
