Introducing the MacBook
Today, Apple unveiled the MacBook, completing the PowerPC to Intel transition, with the exception of the PowerMac which we are still waiting for.
Sporting either a 1.83 or 2.0 GHz Intel Core Duo processor, the MacBooks are available in both black and white. They feature a built in iSight camera, and a glossy (ohh
) 13.3 inch widescreen display. The MacBooks also include built in Wi-Fi and bluetooth. They weigh 5.2 pounds.
Unfortunatley, the black MacBook is $150 more than the white one, and is only available as the high-end model. I personally love the black iPod nanos (and I regret getting a white one), but I’m not so sure how it would look on a MacBook.
One of the most comforting points of buying a MacBook as a switcher from PCs is that you can now natively install Windows XP at your own will if that is still what you prefer, using Boot Camp.
The MacBook starts at $1099 and is available online at the Apple Store and at most retail locations.
