Clearing up specifics on the MacBook Pro

By David Chartier Jan. 10, 2006 2:50 pm EST

Laurie A. Duncan is feeding us a few more details from the Macworld floor on the new MacBook Pros that I thought were quite interesting:

Macbook has one FW 400 port, no FW 800. I guess that ZDNet post was at least on to something
no pcmcia slot – new ExpressCard/34 slot, whatever that is
Hard drive is SATA
now, not IDE
Magnetic power adapter and port is very very cool! Snaps nice and tight
Display now also uses magnetics to close, clasp is gone

We'll publish more details as soon as soon as they roll in.
