Editorial Reviews

Machined from a solid piece of aluminum, the new MacBook is thinner, lighter, and more powerful than ever. The streamlined enclosure slides easily into backpacks and briefcases and is stunning in any setting. NVIDIA delivers discrete-level graphics with up to five times the performance,1 so you can immerse yourself in faster, smoother, more lifelike 3D gameplay. The brilliant, ultrathin LED-backlit display provides instant full screen brightness and enhances any media viewing experience. Click anywhere on the all-new glass Multi-Touch trackpad—the spacious, smooth surface doubles as the button. Multi-Touch gestures now come to the MacBook, so you can use your fingers to swipe through photos, rotate an image, and pinch to zoom in and out. With the new four-finger swipe gesture, access Exposé modes and toggle between open applications. And MacBook is greener than ever: It’s highly recyclable and more energy efficient. At just 0.95 inch thin and 4.5 pounds,2 MacBook is truly the next generation of notebooks. 1Testing conducted by Apple in October 2008 using preproduction 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo–based MacBook units with NVIDIA GeForce 9400M. MacBook systems with 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo and Intel GMA X3100 were shipping units. MacBook continuously monitors system thermal and power conditions, and may adjust processor speed as needed to maintain optimal system operation. 2Actual weight varies by configuration and manufacturing process. 31GB = 1 billion bytes; actual formatted capacity less.

From the quality to the ease of use. This is the best computer I have ever owned! Can slow down a bit if running too many aps at once which I tend to do alot (web pages, downloads, Itunes playing, etc)

Dropped 4ft onto a marble floor - Aluminum unibody worth the extra $$$

The aluminum enclosure designed for this computer is worth every penny. After 6 months of reliable usage and ownership, my Macbook was dropped on its corner edge onto a marble floor from a kitchen counter height. My Macbook slipped out of a Booq laptop bag that was not properly zipped when I attempted to sling it over my shoulder. I swear I saw it fall in slow motion....After defibrillating my heart when it stopped at the time of the "crunch", I picked up the computer and restarted it. HALLELEUIA - STILL WORKED! There was sufficient cosmetic damage from the drop that makes it unsightly for resale (1/4 inch chipped screen in upper right corner, dent from impact visible at the corner of the screen and the corner of the base). However, I don't intend to sell it, and I will use it until it dies, like my previous 12" Powerbook workhorse.

If you are comparing the aluminum unibody to the white polycarbonate macbook- the polycarbonate would've shattered from that same fall. The "dent" reflects the force absorbed by the aluminum enclosure. Spend the extra $100 to $200 for piece of mind.

My point is, no one expects to have their laptop "drop" onto a hard surface from a 4 foot height. Rest assured, the extra $$$ you spend to ensure your computer can survive accidental falls, is worth it.

Aluminum unibody over white polycarbonate- this is a no-brainer

4 1/2 Stars- 5 if it had FireWire

It's mine and no it's not for sale.
Let me first say that this is the exact same unit Apple is currently selling as the 13" MacBook Pro excepting 3 things: SD Card reader (yawn), sealed in battery (yuck) and FireWire :).
I bought mine after the update despite it's lack of FireWire because it has a user changeable battery, which the MacBook Pro lacks.
Excepting the lack of FireWire, this is IMHO the best Mac Laptop made & if you can find a new one or lightly used one get it.

One year later - still loving my Macbook

I switched to Mac last January, and now, one year later, I'm still very satisfied. My Macbook 13.3 has run perfectly, frozen a total of maybe 2 times in an entire year, and perfectly interfaced with bizarre / antique printers, routers, and external hard drives here in China. It runs cool and silent. It's sleek and light and makes for easy packing. What really blew my mind was, after 9 months of use, having to ask a friend to google "Ctrl-Alt-Delete" for mac because I needed to force quit a non-responsive program for the FIRST TIME! What a stark contrast with my (also very decent) Thinkpad at work.

The experience of buying a laptop from Amazon was great as well. It turned up days early, packaged together with my software purchases, and at a steep discount over the Apple Store.
