Well, it has been confirmed by Apple that sometime this year that they are going to be switching out the old laptop displays with LED back lighting. What does this mean exactly? Many things. Back lit LED displays consume far less power so your battery will last longer. They are also much brighter and have more vivid colors, while still using less power overall. So thats something to look forward to when the MacBook Pro series laptops are updated.

This hardware chip is designed for the encoding and decoding of videos, especially high-def video at 1080p. Now you may be asking, “How is this going to be a benefit?” Current machines use software to encode videos and movies, using the processor and other components of your computer, whether it be a Mac or a Windows machine.
