13-inch MacBook Pro/2.26GHz

In overhauling its laptop lineup in June 2009, Apple created a pair of 13-inch MacBook Pro models that not only sport the unibody enclosure introduced the previous fall but also adapt the 17-inch MacBook Pro's lithium-polymer battery. A FireWire port also returns. This model ships with 2GB of RAM (expandable to 8GB) and a 160GB hard drive.
