Apple MacBook (White, 2.16GHz): Compare

By Rory Reid on 19/07/2007

More Apple reviews , RRP: AU$1899.00

The good:

  • Design
  • Price
  • Keyboard

The bad:

  • Heavier than laptops of a similar size

The bottomline:

The latest MacBook looks identical to the old model but benefits from faster components. As a result, it's even better value for money. On the whole, it's difficult to fault -- if you have no qualms using the Apple OS X operating system, it's one of the best laptops of its class
