It doesn't even deserve the name "Pro".

Lets all right a letter and have Apple change the name to the Macbook Rookie then. MBR!

Just joking, but I love my MBP 13", its great.

Comparing the Original MacBook Pro vs. the first MacBook:

"Pros" vs "Cons"

1.83GHz vs. 1.83GHz - Tie
512MB RAM vs 512MB RAM - Tie
15" vs 13" - Pro
80GB HDD vs 60GB HDD - Pro
X1600 vs GMA 950 - Pro
SuperDrive vs. ComboDrive - Pro
FW400 vs FW400 - Tie
2xUSB vs 2xUSB - Tie
$1999 vs $1099 - Con
5.4lbs vs 4.5lbs - Con

More "Pros" then "Cons".

Naming convention makes sense to me. 😉

How about this -- remove the "Pro" from the Apple computers that have it in their names, since it is unnecessary. This means the Mac Pro becomes the Mac and the MacBook Pro becomes the MacBook. Then take the entry level models in all the lines and add "Junior" to their descriptions. So we get:
13" MacBook Pro becomes 13" MacBook Junior
11" MacBook Air becomes 11" Macbook Junior Pilot
Mac mini becomes the Mac Junior

That should keep everyone happy! 🙂

Learn from history… do you remember the PC Jr? LOL

Yes, but nobody ever questioned that it was not a "Pro" computer!

I covered the "Pro" on the bezel with black glossy tape
