Even though we just recently saw a MacBook Pro update, we may be seeing a new quad-core MacBook Pro later in the year. The most recent update only increased the speed of the machine by 1 – 8%. Apple hasn’t commented on whether they will issue a processor update on their high-end laptop, but the upgrade is almost more than likely. Intel just confirmed plans to ship a Core 2 Duo-based quad-core processor later in the year. The processor was developed by Intel for high-end laptops. Intel expects that these processors will perhaps make a laptop into a replacement for desktop systems. The only problem with the possible speed upgrade is that they demand more power, lowering the battery life. Apple may release an upgrade to the MacBook Pros later than the processor ships to accommodate the extra battery power needed. After all, Apple likes to take their time adapting processors to their line, remember Santa Rosa?
