Starting at just $1249,
MacBook delivers the power of the Intel Core 2 Duo — the latest generation of Intel
processors — and a slew of innovative features, including a built-in iSight camera
for video chatting on the go; iLife ’06; Front Row; a glossy 13-inch widescreen
display; even dual-display support.Better
bang-to-buck ratio
The most advanced 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’s powered with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor with speeds
revving up to 2.0GHz.
Pack more punch
In bright white or sleek black, MacBook supports up to
2GB of memory and plenty of storage. Standard models offer up to 120GB of hard drive
space, but if you haul a lot of data around, you can order your MacBook with up to 200GB
of storage. That’s not all. MacBook keeps you untethered courtesy of built-in
Bluetooth and AirPort Extreme (802.11g). A 6x double-layer-burning SuperDrive —
standard equipment on the 2.0GHz model — not only lets you burn DVDs faster but lets
you burn capacious double-layer media. And that 2.0GHz model packs 4MB of shared L2 cache,
which helps deliver a 6x leap in performance over the iBook or PowerBook before it.(1)
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.
All smiles
Look closely. See that little lens in the display bezel?
That’s the built-in iSight camera. Use it to video chat simply by opening iChat AV
and clicking 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.
Take it on tour
MacBook also 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 favorite café. Screen
your latest iMovie creation on the train. Watch a DVD in bed. MacBook and Front Row give
you the best seat in the house (or out of it).
Positively brilliant
Thanks to a 13.3-inch glossy widescreen display, 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 hot spots
The built-in wireless capability of MacBook puts the
“world” back in “World Wide Web.” If there’s a wireless hot spot
nearby, you can get online. No need to waste 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. |
