Apple MacBook MB466B/A ... Gigabit Ethernet - WLAN : 802.11 a/b/g/n (draft), Bluetooth 2.1 EDR - MacOS X 10.5 - 13.3" Widescreen TFT 1280 x 800 ( WXGA ) - camera / Instead of assembling a notebook from many minor parts, the MacBook was reinvented from just one: the solid-aluminum unibody enclosure. It gets full credit for making MacBook thinner, lighter, and even more stunning. But it's not all beauty. Because of the unibody, this MacBook is also durable. It was designed to take on your world. So slip it into your backpack or briefcase and pull it out wherever you go - it's impressive in any setting.

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.

The beautifully seamless, remarkably thin design isn't the only gleaming quality of the LED-backlit display. Open your MacBook and you're instantly greeted by glorious full screen brightness. The aluminum enclosure is perfectly integrated with a glass overlay that stretches to the edge of the notebook, providing a completely unobstructed picture. 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.

 ... anyone wanting to buy one of these should wait until September 09, Apple are releasing their new OS X, Snow Leopard then, and you don't want to buy one now, and have to upgrade come September, although you will be able to do this for free if you bought your Mac after June 09, all you will have to pay would be for the postage and packaging of the new OS (£7.50 I believe). Oh and don't forget, if you're a student either buy your mac instore and present your student card or buy online from the apple student store....more

Premium Review Apple MacBook MB466B/A: Aluminium Macbook Late 2008 (449 words)

I received this for Christmas and I am still besotted with it, and its performance is still amazing. Had I not begun a course and graphic design course and been shown how easy Macs are to use, I probably would never had this great urge to get this macbook. The price may seem extortionate to some people, but you really do get what you pay for. The price buys you a macbook that has been designed with great attention to detail, from the unibody exterior to the little sleep indicator light that pulsates when your macbook is sleeping. You also get great support from Apple, and for 2 years longer if you choose to purchase AppleCare with it. Obviously if ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review My first Mac, not my last (333 words)

A beautiful looking laptop, the MacBook impresses before you turn it on! When mine arrived I was immediatly impressed, even the box it came in is a piece of art. Once unpacked, the first thing you'll be surprised by is the power supply... The connector magnetically pulls itself into the side of the device. This connection has a big advantage over the usual plug in types, if anyone walks into the power lead, it disconnects... no tripping people up or damage to the connector. The next impressive feature is the start up speed, it's very quick both to the login sceen and to the desktop. Now the fun begins, MacOS X! It's not Windows, so some ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Apple MacBook MB466B/A: Saved a bundle at the refurb store (253 words)

I purchased on of these just the other day, and not through one of my normal channels. Instead of brand new, for the first time ever I bought through the Apple UK refurbished store. I got it for £799, so a £130 saving... The only difference is it came in a plain white box, rather than a printed one. Everything in the box was brand new and sealed. The laptop is likely to be a custom return, or even a canceled order. I think mine was a return, as it had a tiny tiny mark on the edge of the lid, you had to hold it up to the light to see it. I was well pleased though. I was started up and on the internet in under ten minutes. Another bonus was that this ...  Read the complete review

I purchased my MacBook around 6 months ago, despite being relatively pricey if you compare them on paper with similar "Windows" laptops the extra price really is well worth it, considering the benefits that they come with. My first impressions were that the build quality was incredible, especially compared with other laptops that I have owned in the past. You can quite easily pick one of these up with one hand, and not hear any creaks or see the entire thing bending, due to its "Unibody" construction. The quality of these really is second to none, a true example of "you get what you pay for", and the operating system, OS X, continues to ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Apple MacBook MB466B/A: Macbook great spec and simple to use (209 words)
by - written on 13/07/09 (Very useful, 39 readings)
Rating:

This is literally the best laptop I have ever had. The battery lasts a long time, depending how you use it for example surfing through wifi, with screen brightness at a low setting will last for at least 4 hours. The built-in webcam although not that high spec, works well with skype and ichat. The trackpad is a pleasure to you, with the new multitouch system, you can go into expose, by dragging four fingers down, go forward or back on the web by sliding 4 fingers left or right, and you can customise it as well to perform other functions. The Keyboard has the right amount of springyness and is great to type on. The screen looks superb, although the glossy finish can give ...  Read the complete review
