The MacBook Pro is never going to be an impulse purchase, not for most people, but you can rely on Apple to offer the sort of upgrade options that will make even the well-heeled pause for thought. An 8GB DDR3 upgrade is now available for the notebook, but it’ll set you back a cool $1,200.
The kit consists of two 4GB 1066MHz DDR3 SODIMMs and is apparently compatible with the 2.53GHz 2.66GHz and 2.93GHz 15-inch MacBook Pro models. It’s only available as a DIY kit; currently the maximum memory you can specify a new 15-inch MacBook Pro with is 4GB. The 17-inch MBP offers 8GB as a $1,000 option.

Not much is known about this UltraTOUCH-inspired B7300, outside of a 3 megapixel autofocus camera and micro USB slot. Considering the source of the pictures and branding on the device, it’s entirely possible this one will be stuck in the far east.

Hitachi CP-X2010 2,200 Lumen Projector
Hitachi have announced a new triple-LCD projector, the Epson CP-X2010, with 2,200 lumen brightness and a 500:1 contrast ratio. The CP-X2010 also has integrated speakers, but unlike most onboard audio there’s a full 16W on offer.
The CP-X2010 is aimed predominantly at education markets, but we’d wager home installs would value its low 29 dBA noise rating and extended 5,000hr lamp life in Eco Mode. There’s also Source Naming - allowing users to rename sources so as to mean more than just “Input 2? - and closed captioning support.

This bad boy sports an Intel Atom N280 CPU, a 120GB HDD, and will be in the ballpark of NT $18,000 - 20,000 (roughly $531 - $590). It should see the light of day sometime in mid-April.
