Review Of The Apple MacBook

by Jerry1973 on June 23, 2010

Apple computers are known for their streamlined designs as well as for being very user friendly. The latest Apple MacBook includes an Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz processor, 2 GB RAM, and a 250 GB hard drive. This mobile broadband laptop is fast and has good battery life, but contains no SD card reader and its display could benefit from a 16:9 aspect ratio. At a price just under $1,000, this may be the ideal laptop for college students.

This latest MacBook walks the line between value and performance by including an Intel core 2 Duo processor, better battery life, and enhanced Nvidia graphics at a cost just shy of $1,000. The 13-inch display could use an upgrade to a higher resolution with a 16:9 aspect ratio rather than the included 16:10 ratio. Other than that and the lack of SD card slot, there is really not much bad to say.

The design includes a unibody construction and has a very slim appearance. The glass multitouch track pad is one of the highlights of this wireless Internet laptop. The entire pad can be pressed down to serve as a left mouse button. Users can tap to click and use intuitive multitouch gestures to do things like minimize and right mouse click.

Included are two USB ports, a DVD burner, mini-DisplayPort video output, Bluetooth, and 802.11n Wi-Fi. The configuration includes 2 GB RAM and 250 GB hard drive, both of which are upgradable for an additional cost. The inclusion of a Nvidia GeForce 320M graphics chip provides nice HD video playback and 3D graphics. Though it is not a true gaming laptop, this upgraded chip makes the MacBook adequate for playing most games. The 6 ½ hour battery life will provide more than enough juice for gaming and other tasks while unplugged.

This latest release of the MacBook includes an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 2 GB RAM, a 250 GB hard drive, Bluetooth, 802.11n wireless Internet, a Nvidia 320M graphics chip, and long battery life. Consumers may want to consider the 13-inch MacBook Pro if they are looking to get more upgrades like an SD card reader. Either option is a great choice for college students and others looking for an easy to use device.
