You can clearly see the new design for easy access to the battery and hard drive.  They&#8217;ve also got a good photo of the new NVIDIA GPU alongside the Intel Core 2 Duo CPU.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pcmag.com\/article2\/0,2817,2332519,00.asp\">PC Magazine<\/a> wasted no time in getting their review up.  They gave it a 3.5 out of 5, mentioning the design and easy access to the hard drive among other things (it&#8217;s a big deal as far as access &#8211; in the past, it was not easy to access the drives in the &#8220;pro&#8221; models).  They included some benchmarks against other 13.3&#8243; laptops as well.  They did confuse the point of Apple upgrading to DisplayPort and dropping the FireWire port &#8211; the two are not related, and I&#8217;m kind of surprised they would confuse those two technologies. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s now a given &#8211; as soon as a new laptop that&#8217;s been hyped up quite a bit is released, that somebody will get one and then take it apart.
