Well for me it’s simple. I just picked up a MacBook Pro (the last version of a month ago) and I’m glad I did because I LOVE MY non glare screen where I don’t have to look at the color of the eyes of the people looking over my shoulders.

Also, what was improved other than size? I mean how small does one need to get too? The 15 macbook pro before is just fine yes?

I think it’s lighter, more processor power, better graphics card and has the Multi-Touch pad of the MacBook Air.

I definitely wouldn’t upgrade if I just bought the slightly older MacBook Pro’s that’s for sure. They’re awesome!
