New Macbook gets official
Apple Macbook gets an update
The new MacBook that we reported as being leaked yesterday has been made official by Apple today. The new version of the laptop favourite has popped up on Apple’s site today, with hardly any fanfare at all.
As was widely believed, the new Macbook comes with a faster CPU and better battery life, and comes in cheaper than the MacBook Pro.
The new MacBook 13-inch white plastic unibody laptop is up for sale, packing a 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo chip (up from 2.26GHz), 2GB of DDR3 RAM and a 250GB hard drive.
The new MacBook Pro also ups the GPU, with an Nvidia GeForce 320M graphics card, and a large claimed battery life boost, from seven hours to ten away from the mains.
The new MacBook Pro specs are almost identical to the bottom end 13-inch MacBook Pro, which only betters it with 4GB of RAM and an SD card slot, for an extra £150.
The new MacBook Pro is on sale now, priced at £849, and ships within 24 hours.

The only think i like about mac's is there crystal clear screens. and how fast they are, as a daliy PC user there quiet hard to get the hang of it. but i agree it is a very nice pice of kit!

Well it is sounds proper good as I know when I have commented on the previous Macbook link on this site(The silver one.) I am still looking forward to the laptop coming out but as I checked before it is coming out in October this year, still I dont know how much it costs. Still good, well sounds good to what I have heard about it.
