    I heard the MBP was just updated. But since I dont follow the mac line too much, what was changed? It "looks" the same.

    Option for a 2.6 Ghz processor (at extra cost)

    Hard drive choices improved... now offering 200Gb 7200 rpm (previously 4200) and 250 Gb drive.

    I am kind of hoping that the next update will see the 2.6 processor at 'standard' cost :)

    Yeah, its a very minor change. Its not really an update, as there's no replacement of anything, rather they've opened up more customization options.

    It's an update, not a refresh. You can say that the update has better customization options and you've described all that Apple did.
