In Part II of our two-part investigation of the new MacBook Pro, we examine how Apple's new notebook performs as a Windows and Mac gaming machine. We also investigate overall performance and battery life.
It's evident that this MacBook Pro is not that much faster than its predecessor as far as the CPU goes. In our testing using GeekBench, the 2.53GHz, late 2008 model was only about 2.5% faster than the previous model. For any real performance gain in ...

The newest iPod nano doesn't just come in a rainbow of colors; it also comes with a handful of new features that actually make it much more than a standard bump to the iPod line. Ars reviews the fourth-generation iPod nano, giving you our take on ...

The MacBook Air's high-end model comes with 200 extra MHz and a solid state drive. Is it worth the extra $1,300 to upgrade? We compare the two Airs directly to find out whether the price is worth paying.
Like the Cinebench results, PSBench pits the two MacBook Airs against each other and shows similar results in many of the tests. When there is a difference between the two, the SSD model slightly outperforms the HDD model. Again, most of these results ...

Santa Rosa finally makes its way to the low end of Apple's laptop lineup. Ars reviews the new MacBook to see if it's an upgrade worth paying attention to.
If you decide to spec your own at the Apple Store, the one thing you shouldn't mess with is the amount of RAM. The addition of the Santa Rosa chipset means you can now cram your MacBook with up to 4GB of memory. Apple thinks this should cost you an ...

Apple has drastically overhauled the iPod with the release of the iPod touch. Ars goes hands-on with the latest iteration of the world's top-selling digital audio player line to determine if the iPod touch is anything more than an iPhone without the ...
The specs for the iPod touch display match that of the iPhone. Both devices have a 3.5" multi-touch display with a resolution of 480x320. That works out to 163 pixels per inch. Do they look the same? You'll have to keep reading to find out

Thousands (and thousands) of words, a handful of big, high-resolution demonstration videos, and a brutal stress test that will get the iPhone protected by PETA. Three (and a half) reviewers enter; one score leaves.
The iPhone isn't the world's smallest phone, but its sleek design and particularly its thickness make this an easy phone to pocket
