MacBook Pro Line Updated, Jobs Memorial Posted

Apple issued a quiet update this week of its MacBook Pro line of laptops. The new models have the same design and basic features as the previous line, but have minor updates to processor speed and hard drive space. For instance, the low-end MacBook Pro now comes with a 2.4GHz i5 processor and a 500GB drive. It previously had a 2.3GHz processor and a 320GB drive for the same price.
The Apple Stores are experimenting with in-store pickup. Three stores in the San Francisco area are now offering the ability to order and pay for products online, and then stop by the stores to pick up the products. It appears that Apple will soon be offering this in more stores in the U.S.
Minor software updates were released this week for iPhoto and Mac firmware. The firmware updates bring Lion Internet Recovery to the latest iMacs. This feature, already on recent MacBooks, allow the Mac to connect over a network to Apple and re-install Lion even if the entire hard drive has failed.
On Oct. 19 Apple held a memory for Steve Jobs that featured speeches and music performances. They have posted video of this event online.
