Reallly!!!!!????
I found these on geekbench. And as someone who has waited for a 13: MBP refresh for over 5 months - IT HURTS.
This is the late 2008 model with 2.4GHZ
http://browse.geekbench.ca/geekbench2/view/237939
Score 3635
This is the latest MBP 13
http://browse.geekbench.ca/geekbench2/view/237834
Score 3360
Someone please correct me if im reading this wrong.

Both machines have the EXACT same processor. The only reason there is a score bump in the 2008 model is because that user was running GeekBench in 64-bit mode.
The real performance gains will be in the GPU and battery life for the 2010 13".
I believe that was from the guy that just got his 13" a couple of threads down.
The scores would probably be the same if GeekBench had been run in 64-bit for the 13".
32 bit?
here are the 32 bit scores for the old machine.

still a notch higher at 3418.
Why steve why??

Any other benchmark differences will matter on how many processes the user has running. There will be no increase or decrease in performance on the two machines otherwise on the processor scores.
Oh i would want to see that. I thought that the geekbench scores took into consideration the GPU capabilities as well.
But guys, Im new to apple, but i cant stop wondering " How do you guys not get frustrated with Apple". How can you put up with this using of CPUs used in a 2008 model again in the 2010 model. Its just preposterous.

They had no choice. It was either a C2D with a better GPU or an i3 with a worse GPU.
But there are better C2D's available. And who stopped them from making some changes t the board and adding a discrete GPU.
All said and done, if nothing was possible they could have at least lowered the prices a bit. We all know charging 1499 for the high end is not at all justified.
