Because of graduation, I am now the proud owner of a white Macbook. It is the basic (lowest) version, but, awesome, nonetheless. This should be a fun adventure over the next week or two trying to figure this out. So far, the hardest thing is getting used to not having the ability to right click on things. I never realized how convenient that is. Honestly, that is my only complaint about Macs so far (the non-existent ability of right clicking).
The full stats on it are:
2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor
1GB (two 512 SO-DIMMs) of DDR2 SDRAM (supports up to 2GB)
80GB 5400-rpm hard drive
13.3-inch (diagonal) TFT widescreen display (1280 x 800 pixels)
Intel GMA 950 graphics processor with 64MB of DDR2 SDRAM shared with main memory
Built-in iSight video camera
Front Row and Apple Remote
Slot-loading Combo drive (DVD-ROM/CD-RW)
Other less important specs:
One FireWire 400 port
Two USB 2.o ports
Optical digital audio input/audio line in
Optical digital audio output/headphone out
Built in stereo speakers
Mini-DVI port for DVI, VGA, composite, and S-Video
Built-in 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet
Built-in AirPort Extreme
Built-in Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR (Enhanced Data Rate)
Preinstalled Mac OS X and other bundled software (iLife)
More information:
12.78 by 8.92 by 1.08 inches
5.2 pounds
Meets ENERGY STAR requirements
If anyone has any tips useful for beginners or any information I should know regarding Macbooks, feel free to leave me a comment. As to which I like better (Mac versus PC), I have an answer. And, that answer is, they both have their advantages and disadvantages. Depending on what you want out of your computer (like what you will use it for) will make all of the difference. I'll give my opinion on that at a later date, along with some pictures of the new beauty. (Macs really do look nice though. I will say that!)
