I have the previous gen MBP aluminum unibody with the backlit keyboard, firewire, 13inch screen with a 2.26 processor and 250gb HD. This thing runs beautifully. The newer model that was just released goes from a "7hr battery" in mine to a "10hr battery". It also goes up to a 2.4ghz processor and a new NVIDEA 320M graphics card. For me, I just do basic photo and video editing and basic laptop functions. For me, the slight upgrade in processor and graphics card isn't worth it. The extended battery life would be nice, but I'll pass. Where the new MBP's shine is in the 15inch and 17inch category where they introduce the new processors and have better graphics power.
