Apple MacBook Pro 2011 official

ASUS Eee Note EA800 gets video unboxing; user-guide goes live

Atom N550 benchmarks suggest doubled performance over N450
It seems ASUS were playing silly beggars at Computex this year, with their demo Eee PC 1015PN and 1015N netbooks both labelled as using Intel Atom N475 processors whereas actually they packed Intel's newer dual-core Atom N550 chips.
