Product Description The MacBook uses a graphics processor that economizes space in a whole new way. A traditional computer logic board contains multiple components: the CPU, two chips that control communication throughout the computer, and the graphics processor. The logic board in the MacBook contains only two components: the CPU and a graphics processor with all of the core logic built into a single chip.Open your MacBook and you're instantly greeted by glorious full screen brightness. Anything you view, including the glossy widescreen display itself, is a spectacular experience. The LED-backlit display is more power efficient. And it's mercury- and arsenic-free, so it's greener than ever.

What's in the box MacBook; 60W MagSafe Power Adapter, AC wall plug, and power cord; install/restore DVDs; printed and electronic documentation Limited Warranty And Service The MacBook comes with 90 days of free telephone support and a one-year limited warranty. Purchase the AppleCare Protection Plan to extend your service and support to three years from your computer's purchase date. Only the AppleCare Protection Plan provides you with direct telephone support from Apple technical experts and the assurance that repairs will be handled by Apple-authorized technicians using genuine Apple parts. Key Features The Longest-Lasting Macbook Battery Ever--Up to 7 Hours Now take MacBook with you everywhere without worrying about plugging in or even carrying your power adapter. Its built-in lithium-polymer battery lasts up to 7 hours on a single charge, which makes it perfect for long flights, all-day workshops, and marathon study sessions. Thanks to its advanced battery chemistry and charging technology, the MacBook battery can be recharged up to 1000 times--good for about five years of typical usage--and lasts nearly three times the lifespan of typical notebook batteries. A Comfortable Keyboard Your Fingers Will Love The MacBook's keyboard is full size, with keys that are curved to contain your fingers and highly responsive to your touch. Its low-profile design integrates perfectly into the unibody enclosure, so you'll get a comfortable experience whether you're typing a quick email or writing a lengthy research report. The keyboard also gives you one-touch access to music and video controls and Mac OS X features such as Dashboard and Exposé. Spacious Glass Multi-Touch Trackpad The new MacBook Multi-Touch trackpad has no button because it is the button. Not having a separate button also makes for a larger trackpad surface, giving your fingers more room to move, click, and gesture. And because the trackpad supports Multi-Touch gestures, you can use one or more fingers to interact with your documents, images, and applications with gestures such as two-finger scroll, pinch, swipe, and rotate. If you come from a right-click world, you can configure a right-click area on the trackpad or simply press with two fingers. 
Some of the multi-touch gestures you can perform with the MacBook. | Wireless That Works Connect to the Internet at fast speeds anywhere thanks to the built-in AirPort Extreme 802.11n Wi-Fi. Like everything else about a Mac, joining Wi-Fi networks couldn't be simpler. If you've previously connected to a network, your Mac automatically logs you in so you can immediately email, surf the web, or video chat. Have a Bluetooth-enabled phone, headset, keyboard, or mouse? They can all connect to your MacBook courtesy of built-in Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR--and it remembers all your devices, too Innovative Power Cord The MagSafe Power Adapter has a magnetic connection instead of a physical one. So if someone happens to trip over the power cord while you're working, they won't send your new MacBook flying off a table or desk. Instead, the cord breaks cleanly away, without damage to either the cord or the system. As a bonus, you can tell if your MacBook is fully charged when the LED on the connector changes from amber to green. Easy Access To Connections And Ports The connections and ports on MacBook--MagSafe power, Gigabit Ethernet, Mini DisplayPort, USB, and audio in/out--are all smartly integrated on the same side of the notebook. So your cables stay neatly organized, and connecting and disconnecting your devices is easy and convenient. Pre-Loaded with Mac OS X Snow Leopard and iLife '09 Every Mac comes with Mac OS X Snow Leopard, the world's most advanced operating system, and iLife, Apple's innovative suite of applications for managing photos, making movies and creating and learning to play music. Snow Leopard builds on a decade of OS X innovation and success with hundreds of refinements, new core technologies and out of the box support for Microsoft Exchange. iLife features iPhoto, to easily organize and manage photos; iMovie with powerful easy-to-use new features such as Precision Editor, video stabilization and advanced drag and drop; and GarageBand which introduces a whole new way to help you learn to play piano and guitar. Installed software
- Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard (includes Time Machine, Quick Look, Spaces, Spotlight, Dashboard, Mail, iChat, Safari, Address Book, QuickTime, iCal, DVD Player, Photo Booth, Front Row, Xcode Developer Tools)
- iLife '09 (includes iPhoto, iMovie, GarageBand, iWeb, iDVD)
Environmentally Friendly Design Because Apple designs both hardware and software, we can reduce our environmental footprint in ways others can't. For starters, a highly efficient power supply reduces the amount of power wasted when bringing electricity from the wall to your Mac. Unlike a lot of PCs, a Mac uses energy-efficient hardware components that work hand in hand with the operating system to conserve power--even between keystrokes. A Mac also doesn't contain a lot of toxic materials. All Mac displays are mercury and arsenic free, and the internal components are free of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and brominated flame retardants (BFRs). Advanced Power Management Unlike a lot of Windows-based PC systems, MacBook uses energy-efficient hardware components that work hand in hand with the operating system to conserve power. Mac OS X spins down hard drives and activates sleep mode on already energy-efficient LED-backlit displays. And it balances tasks across both central processors and graphics processors. Mac OS X never misses a power-saving opportunity, no matter how small. It even regulates the processor between keystrokes, reducing power between the letters you type. That's just one of many ways Apple manages small amounts of power that add up to big savings. Longer-lasting Battery--Lasts up to 5 Years The removable batteries in most notebooks are designed to be replaced every year or two, which means lots of batteries are used up and discarded. But the battery in the new MacBook lasts up to five years--or 1000 recharges. So it uses just one battery in the same time a typical notebook uses three, reducing waste and environmental impact. And to help ensure that batteries are disposed of in an environmentally responsible way, Apple offers a battery take-back program in 95 percent of the countries in which it does business. ENERGY STAR Qualification The MacBook meets the stringent low power requirements set by the EPA, making it ENERGY STAR qualified. ENERGY STAR 5.0 sets significantly higher efficiency limits for power supplies and aggressive limits for the computer's typical annual power consumption.

Great Apple Quality but the Aluminum Body is hardier November 26, 2009 NK (New York, USA) 7 out of 13 found this review helpful
This is a great laptop but the aluminum body Macboook Pro is much hardier for $ 200 more. Of course the Apple laptops are 30 to 40% higher priced than HP and other Windows laptops so you need to see which OS suits you best - Windows 7 or Mac OSX.
Also the price of this laptop was $999 list and sold to me by Amazon for $952 + tax. Around 2 weeks later the price has gone down to $ 884.98. I feel ripped off.
Best Laptop I've Owned - Excellent MousePad! November 25, 2009 Greg Bennett (Moore, OK) 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Always had windows computers. Have the new Toshiba w/ Windows 7. This Mac blows it away - yes it's $300 more but has a much faster processor, a built-in camera that blows away the toshiba in resolution - the toshiba is worthless taking pics - the pics are too dark to make out. Video card and screen graphics blow the toshiba away. Mac boots up and is surfing the internet faster and also shuts down faster. Mousepad along is worth $100 xtra in my book - I always used Logitech wireless notebook mouse because of the sucky designs. No need to with this - just scroll to where you want on the pad and click down right on that spot - no searching for a separate button in lower left. Much more comfortable design w/ more room before the keypad and much more comfortable on hands. Is heavier than toshiba, but not enough to make any usable difference. Extension cord power cord is great also and no massive transformer to tote around - like the magnetic plug in connector as well. I recently switched to iphone 3GS and was so impressed vs blackberry curve I had to try this out and will purchase one for my daughter when she starts college next year. Also do not plan on wasting money on antivirus software - a huge annual savings as mac osx snow leopard doesn't get the hackers that windows does because windows is in corporations and most people own them. Was cheaper on amazon w/ free 2 day ship w/ amazon prime which I am a huge favor of and no sales tax ($225 total savings).
decisions decisions... November 24, 2009 Kathern Bartlett (tucson, arizona) 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
First and foremost I love MAC. When i was younger my mom had a mac and i absolutely HATED it. After buying a windows HP last year and getting billions of stupid pop-ups, and having to search through 20 folders to find one thing, or programs closing for "unexpected reasons". I decided to switch. I personally think mac's are very simple to learn and once you learn all the ins and outs you'll wonder why you ever used windows. It reminds me of the iphone, how the App's are click and go. It is the same with the mac. I've debated getting the macbook and macbook pro, but for the price and the fact i won't be using it for games, i decided on the macbook. I currently own the macbook air and love it. I have zero problems with viruses, i never get pop-ups or random programs on my comp that i will never use. The Iphoto is awesome, and has a face recognition so you can create albums depending on whose in the picture, by place or by date. I also love IWORK, which i use to do all my homework for school, it saves in pdf. and .doc which is the most common. A random thing i noticed is the webcam is way clearer then other windows computers. Garage band is loved by many who love music and want to create ringtones or tracks. There is also Imovie for burning movies. the mac i use is only 1.6 ghz (speed) and I can have 5 windows open and running and i never get an "unexpected error must close". So if you are daring enough to try something new, are tired of silly pop-ups, and stupid stuff that comes with your computer then this is the laptop for you.
Fabulous laptop - but check before you depart the store!! November 22, 2009 George E. Jelly (Heidelberg, GER) 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
I just picked up a MacBook Pro 13" for my daughter yesterday (not from Amazon). All the raving reviews are really true - it is a very well-built and fabulously running system. Bright LCD, great backlit keyboard, very good battery life and MacOS is fast and snappy. I have installed Windows 7, using Bootcamp, and it also runs very well. Mine did not come with Snow Leopard so I had to download a 23-Mb update from Apple to get the drivers "right" in Windows 7. But, caveat emptor, I assumed this MB would be equally nice as the one I bought late last year (from Amazon) for my oldest daughter. After I brought this one home, I discovered a rub mark (not bad - but noticeable) and a long but small scratch on the aluminum lid. I will put a nice laptop skin on it to cover both - but an $1100+ system should not have damage like this. So - if you don't want any scratches/etc - buy from Amazon! If you buy from a brick and mortar - I suggest that you open the package in the store and check for visible damage.
MAC IS GREAT! November 18, 2009 Nicolas A. (Buenos Aires, Argentina) 3 out of 10 found this review helpful
I actually bought a year ago, but now I remember how much this comment and reviews helped to choose this mac. Ive got the black one which in my opinion is better than the white one (white one sometimes get yellowish) and although the black one does get some smudges as everyone says, they are minor, really, they will not make it look worse. IT IS THE NICEST AND BEST COMPUTER EVER MADE!! and now at a really good price (I paid $1499 for it). It is even nicer than the new one!! The new one has really good features so you might be opting for that one, but please buy a MAC. It is, really, the BEST OPERATING SYSTEM EVER!! It is easy, fast and you will like it (if you are thinking you might not i assure you that you will). There is nothing out there that can compete with the mac operating system.
This computer is great for everything. If you are a heavy gamer I don't recommend it, but if you are not buy it or buy any mac out there!!
MACS ARE THE BEST!! It will really make your life simple and more entertaining.
If you do buy one before buying Iwork or Microsoft stuff try Neooffice which I believe is great and sufficient for school and probably work!!
