meme( It's remarkable how little macbook pro performance has increased in 3 years )

Ok, it's been more like 2 years, 8 months, but the processor has gone from 1.83 Core Duo to 2.6 Core 2 Duo. The graphics capabilities don't seem to be improving by leaps and bounds either, although I'm no expert here. We have a 2.5 year old MacBook Pro in the house and it still seems top of the line, although it wasn't lovingly carved from a single block of electrum, or whatever.
