What do you
get when you put up to 2GHz of pure Intel Core Duo power, an iSight camera, Front Row,
iLife ’06, and a 13-inch glossy widescreen display into a sleek case? More than you
thought possible for less than you thought possible. Meet MacBook, starting at $1249.
Better bang-to-buck ratio
Now the Intel Core Duo is as affordable as
it is powerful. With MacBook, you get the world’s fastest mobile architecture in a
beautifully designed notebook that costs less than slower, clunkier models. That’s
like getting a sports car for the price of a scooter. Of course, MacBook holds more than
your average two-seater: up to 80GB hard drive, an optional DVD-burning SuperDrive,
built-in Bluetooth, wireless-ready (802.11g) AirPort, and up to 2GB of RAM. And for the
first time ever, choose bright white or sleek black.
Friends for iLife
Every MacBook comes with iLife ’06 — 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.
Take it on tour
MacBook features Front Row, so you can navigate your
movies, music, photos, and more at the touch of the included Apple Remote — no matter
where you roam. Give an impromptu vacation photo slideshow in your favourite café. Screen
your latest iMovie on the train. Watch a DVD in bed. MacBook and Front Row give you the
best seat in the house (or out of it).
All smiles
Look closely. See that little lens in the display bezel?
That’s the MacBook’s built-in iSight camera. Use it to video chat simply by
opening iChat AV and clicking on a buddy icon (or three). Or fire up Photo Booth and take
a few snapshots with the iSight, play around with sixteen fun effects, then admire your
handiwork. That little camera lets you create Web-ready videos, too. Just open up iMovie
and start the action. From there, iWeb makes it one-click easy to get your talking head on
the Web.(2) Looks like fun.
Positively brilliant
Thanks to a 13.3-inch glossy widescreen display that’s
79% brighter with 30% more viewing area than the iBook before it, MacBook provides the
perfect combination of pixels and portability. Photos feel crisper. Movies play vividly.
Even daily tasks like surfing the Web and checking email take on a whole new sheen.
Hit the hotspots
The built-in wireless capability of MacBook puts the
“world” back in “world wide web.” If there’s a wireless hotspot
nearby, you can get online. No need to burn valuable surfing time configuring your
computer. Just open it up. MacBook automatically detects wireless networks within range
and asks nicely if you’d like to join any of them. That’s it. Catch up on your
blog, share this weekend’s trip as a photocast, or just chat with your friends.
Anytime, anywhere.
MacBook: the most advanced affordable Mac notebook ever.
Rocket Dual
The dual-execution core Intel Core Duo processor gives
MacBook up to five times the raw speed of even the fastest iBook.
