I’ve seen a few programs take advantage of the new MacBook Pro’s Touch Bar already, but most of them are there to do something useful. How boring. What you need is to upgrade your MacBook Pro into the KITT 2000, the hyperintelligent car from the 1980s TV series, Knight Rider.

We’ve seen LEGO-compatible iPhone cases, so why not one for Apple’s laptops as well? The Brik Case is compatible with MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models released in 2013 or later. It works not just with LEGO but with Mega Bloks, PixelBlocks, KRE-O or K’NEX pieces as well.

It’s been a while since a new MacBook Pro has hit the market, so if you’ve been holding out for a long time waiting for a new model of Apple’s top-end laptop to hit, you’ll be happy to know that a new model has finally been announced.

I don’t like using keyboard covers. The ones I’ve tried feel too squishy and don’t fit perfectly. But I get why people would want Befine’s upcoming line of keyboard covers. Made for the Macbook Air, Macbook Pro and the Apple wireless keyboard, the covers will localize keyboards for people who use other characters aside from the ones in the Latin alphabet.

As with most Apple offerings, the option to get increased storage space for new Mac notebooks are insanely expensive. Sure, external drives are cheap nowadays, but it would be more convenient if you didn’t have to carry another gadget around.

Apple today revealed the latest and greatest in its MacBook Pro lineup, simply dubbed the “Next Generation MacBook Pro.” In addition to a svelte new profile, the top-of-the-line machine offers the highest resolution display ever to be seen in a laptop.

Gadget lovers are all too familiar with the distinct sterile, factory smell that our toys and gizmos have when they are first taken out of their packaging. I’m not sure if I’d like to smell like a gadget, even if it is a new one, but apparently a fragrance company has replicated that new gadget smell, specifically that of an Apple Macbook Pro.

Cooling stands are a dime a dozen nowadays, but the TILT concept laptop stand for the MacBook Pro may be the most practical one yet. It has a lot of features, but I think the one that makes it very effective is that it sticks to the bottom of the MBP, which means you can just leave it on and forget it was even there.

We love us some Space Invaders around these parts, especially when they keep all your gadgets looking colorfully retro. These items just please the young geek inside of me who pumped way too many quarters in way too many arcade machines.

So you’ve got a gold plated flash drive. It even looks like a real gold bar! La dee-frickin-da. That’ll look pathetic without an equally blinged out computer to stick it into. If you really want to burn money and be a true techie pimp, you’re going to have to get something like this golden MacBook Pro by Computer Choppers.

Apple today released their new MacBook Pro laptops, and the new models further refine an already great series of personal computers. Highlights of the new models include an upgrade of the 15-inch and 17-inch models to speedy quad-core Intel Core i7 CPUs.

Ten One Design’s app could be a godsend to artists who can’t afford a full-fledged tablet. It can be used with any pen-like object, but when combined with the company’s Pogo Sketch pen, Inklet adds touch-sensitivity to your unibody MacBook/MacBook Pro’s trackpad.

“Do you want to let your keyboard special?”, asks Etsy seller openandclose. You do? Oh goody! You’re in for a treat, because openandclose has like a million keyboard decals for your MacBook or MacBook Pro! The decals are made with Avery MPI vinyl and are supposedly very easy to clean or remove.

Yep, people who buy the 15-inch Macbook Pro now have the option to ditch the glossy display for one with an anti-glare coating. As with the 17-inch Macbook Pro, the anti-glare coating costs an extra $50 (USD).

When it comes to their laptops, Apple has a bit of a sadistic side, adding neat features only to take them away soon after. For example, the Firewire port was a staple of the polycarbonate Macbooks, and then it was removed from the first Unibody 13.3″ Macbooks, only to be returned in the new 13.3″ Macbook (semi)Pros.

Macworld Senior Editor Roman Loyola posted a video guide showing how one can install Apple’s OS X Leopard on an SD card. The new Macbook Pros (save for the 17-in) come with an SD card slot, so you can install apps on the SD card and boot from it if for instance you want to perform repairs on the internal hard drive.
