Review
If you like an Apple and you need a portable version of your current Mac OR you want to renew your existing Apple Laptop, then this is the product for you. With it's 13.3" TFT screen, 2Gb of RAM and 120Gb Hard Disk it's got all you need.
It has a great built in NVIDIA GeForce graphics controller that provide stunning imagery and great gaming performance.
Photos will appear in iPhoto without delay, movies and video playback is better than ever before.
There is no other laptop that offers such discrete-level graphics performance in an integrated processor.
It also has a full-size keyboard that has backlit keys for those of you that want to use it in poor lighting conditions. (Like you bed..)
Even though there is only 120Gb of disk space available (There is capability to increase the Hard Drive at a later date if needed.) as it has it's own built in WiFi you can connect up to an existing server/Mac or PC that you have stored your music/video and documents on.
The new Multi-Touch pad is bigger and better than before with the capability similar to that of the iPhone: pinch, swipe, or rotate to zoom in on text, advance through a photo album, or adjust an image. Or try out the new four-finger swipe. With this gesture, you can navigate up and down for Expose modes or left and right to switch between applications.
This MacBook also has a built-in iSight camera which has a great quality and is discreetly located
It plays DVD's and CD's easily and at fantastic quality and has a good battery life of approx 1 day before needing a charge.
It's an Apple, go on - you know you want it...
