The next-generation MacBook.

The new MacBook has something for everyone. Less than an inch thin and 4.5 pounds, it fits your backpack (and your mobile lifestyle). It offers great integrated graphics performance for playing 3D games or creating photo books in iPhoto and making movies in iMovie. And it has all the MacBook features you want at a price you'll adore.

Better bang-to-buck ratio

The most advanced and affordable Mac notebook ever gives you a blazingly fast mobile architecture in a beautiful design that costs less than slower, clunkier models. It's like getting a sports car for the price of a scooter. Talk about performance - MacBook is powered by an Intel Core 2 Duo processor with speeds revving up to 2.4GHz and with a 3MB on-chip shared L2 cache running 1:1 with processor speed.

Square one: a solid block of aluminum.

Instead of assembling a notebook from many minor parts, the new MacBook was reinvented from just one: the new, 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.

Friends for iLife

Every MacBook comes with iLife ’08 - an amazing suite of applications that make it easy to live the digital life. Use iPhoto to share entire high-res photo albums with anyone who's got an email address. Record your own songs and podcasts with GarageBand. Break into indie filmmaking with iMovie HD and iDVD. Then take all the stuff you made on your MacBook and share it on the web in one click with iWeb.2 Just turn on your MacBook and you're halfway there.

A more energy-efficient notebook.

Because Apple makes its own hardware and software, it's able to create smarter products that use less electricity. To reduce energy consumption, the hard drive spins down automatically when it's inactive. To be more efficient, the display dims when you enter a darkened room. The processor even throttles down to save power between keystrokes as you type. MacBook also decides which processor - CPU or GPU - is best suited to efficiently perform a task. All these little adjustments add up. When it's turned on, the new MacBook uses one quarter the power of a single lightbulb.

The new MacBook LED-backlit display is another environmental breakthrough. LED technology uses 30 percent less power than conventional LCD displays. The LED-backlit display is mercury-free, highly recyclable, and encased in arsenic-free glass.

MacBook meets the stringent low power requirements set by the EPA and the U.S. Department of Energy, giving it ENERGY STAR certification.
