Apple MacBook (2.0GHz, 13-inch, black)
Comments:
With the MacBook, Apple has corrected a handful of the iBook's shortcomings, hit a reasonable price point, and delivered a laptop that makes a great compromise between size and portability.

If you bought a Mac laptop recently, this latest MacBook upgrade will cause no reason for despair. However, if you've been awaiting the most optimal time to refresh an iBook or even an older PowerBook G4, this might be it.

Laptop makeover results in impressive speed gains
Comments:
Apple's MacBook line, already a hit with consumers and students, is even more appealing with faster CPUs, bigger hard drives, and more memory in the base model.
Review Verdict: The latest enhancements to the line aren't spectacular, but they're sure to solidify the MacBook's status as a market leader. All three models-still weighing in at 5.1 pounds, and still priced at $1,099, $1,299, and $1,499-have slightly faster processors

Under the hood improvements lead to better overall performance and gaming

If you bought a Mac laptop recently, this latest MacBook upgrade will cause no reason for despair. However, if you've been awaiting the most optimal time to refresh an iBook or even an older PowerBook G4, this might be it.
Review Verdict: Let's start with speed: there's a modest difference if you just look at the numbers. The new high- and mid-range models now clock 2.2GHz, which slightly tops the previous generation's 2.16GHz speed. The low-end build is still 2GHz

Review Verdict: Apple has been content to issue minor periodic hardware updates to the 13-inch MacBook, but the modest performance gains and new Leopard OS keep it in our top tier of laptop recommendations.
