Apple puts Intel chips in MacBook Pro

Intel Core Two Duo chips being used to power MacBook Pro computers doubled the memory capacity and improved performance as much as 39%, according to Apple.

The 15-inch models, priced at 1,999 dollars and 2,499 dollars, were available from Tuesday. A newly introduced MacBook Pro model with a 17-inch screen was to be shipped to stores beginning next week with a price tag of 2,799 dollars.

"The new MacBook Pro delivers unprecedented performance and mobility in an incredibly thin and light design," said Apple vice president Philip Schiller. "We are thrilled that our notebook sales are growing twice as fast as the overall notebook market, and we hope these new MacBook Pro models continue that success."

Last week the iconic Cupertino, California, technology firm reported surging profits driven by sales of iPod MP3 players and Macintosh computers.
