Unibody MacBook Pro 15-inch finally gets matte display option

When Apple launched the unibody MacBook Pros, one of the loudest cries we heard from the Mac community was in relation to the loss of the matte display option. You see, while Apple touted colors that “pop” a bit more off of the glossy screen, those of us who like to be, you know, mobile with our notebook computers, cried foul. The problem with a glossy-only option (or lack of option, really) is that if you are using your MacBook Pro in the sun, you essentially have a screen that can double as a mirror.
Well, Apple has heard those cries, and has finally brought a matte screen option to the 15-inch MacBook Pro, something that the 17-inch unibody version has had since the get-go. It’ll cost you an extra $50 for the privilege, and you also lose the black “borderless” infinity bezel around the screen, and instead get a silver bezel like previous versions of the MacBook Pro.

There’s no such thing as an Ion + i3. It’s either Any integrated chipset you want + Core 2 Duo or Intel HD + Core i3 or Nvidia ION + Atom. Those are your only choices for integrated graphics. Like the article says, Intel put the graphics on the CPU instead of on the chipset for the Core i series processors. In fact, Intel has stated that their argreement with Nvidia only allows them to make chipsets for the Core 2 series, so they can’t even work on a chipset for the Core i series. Actually, according to Intel, Nvidia doesn’t even have a right to make the ION.
