HotHardware have published their review of the Apple MacBook Pro15-inch notebook. 'With an Intel Core i5 humming away under its hood, the MacBook Pro uses the processor's integrated graphics. But it also includes a discrete Nvidia GeForce GT 330M GPU as well. Similar to how Nvidia's Optimus technology works on some switchable-graphics Windows-based laptops, the MacBook Pro uses a technology that Apple calls "automatic graphics switching" to automatically switch from using one GPU to another, depending on the demands of the running applications. The goal is to use the discrete GPU only when it is truly needed in order to best conserve battery life.'
