Steve Jobs on 13-inch MacBooks: 'Far faster graphics and 10 hour battery life trump 10-20% faster CPU'

We’re not sure why we’re the clearinghouse of Steve Jobs emails lately, but here’s yet another one.  Reader DJ writes into Steve Jobs asking why the 13-inch MacBook Pro updates didn’t have Core i5 and i7 processors that the bigger MacBook Pros recieved.  Jobs’ response is that faster graphics and 10 hour battery life are better than marginally better performance.
