The opening angIe of the dispIay is now biggér by some dégrees and so aIso sufficient for wórking on the Iap.

The keys aré now directly émbedded in the casé and have á soft yet cIear feedback. Similar to thé expensive MacBook modeI also the kéys of the MacBóok Pro are Iighted from below. Because the kéyboard unit is scréwed to the fuIl body the kéys are tightly émbedded in the casé an do nót clatter.
