The writer doesn't directly cite the contacts he claims to have but is confident that Apple will use NVIDIA's full-size notebook platform, the MCP79MX, for both the standard MacBook and at least a 15-inch MacBook Pro. As with the current lineup, the 13-inch MacBook would use integrated graphics but would use the GeForce 9300M or 9400M built into the chipset; either of these are believed to significantly outperform Intel's current GMA series architecture. MacBook Pros would include a distinct graphics processor from the GeForce 9600M series.

How good is the 9600M?

It's a slightly higher clocked 8600M GT.

I can imagine the MCP79 (9200M) on the MacBook but not the MacBook Pro. They might share the chipset for manufacturing and power saving purposes though.

A real GPU in the MB would be awesome.
