Some more info on Macintels

Sorry for the fragmentated news about the new machines, but we keep receiving info about them that we'd like to share.
iMac and MacPro use 667 MHz DDR2, as opposed to 533 MHz for G5s and 1.67 MHz G4 Powerbooks. You will have to pay attention to it when buying RAM. No more internal modems on either machines,which won't be able to use Classic either.
the iMac Intel:
- now supports extended screen and has a mini DVI or a VGA output via an adapter. Supports connecting a display up to 23".
- A small move backwards with RAM, which is now SO-DIMM. There are two slots.
MacBook Pro
- The Superdrive is a 4X but not double layer. If there is ant technical reason to this meannes, we'd surely like to know it.
- The Battery is a Polymere Lithium, more powerful than that of current Powerbooks, yet Apple are the first in the world to sell a laptop without any hint about battery life...
The machine consumption can be expected to rise, though, as the transformer itself is more powerful by 15W.
- S-Video is now an option.
- No more PCMCIA, but its follower, ExpressCard/34.
So as always with Apple, even the happiest ones wil be disappointed. We'll try hard to get info about this machine battery life.
[MàJ] According to the information Ars Technica got on Macworld, and as displayed by prototypes that are available to the public, the machine shows a battery lifespan of 3h 03 mn with a fully loaded battery. As we do not know energy saving preferences, neither the screen luminosity (probably set to the max), this lenght is only indicative.
