Features:
* Intel Core 2 Duo
MacBook offers powerful performance in a sleek design, thanks to Intel Core 2 Duo processors with speeds up to 2.16GHz — and 4MB of shared L2 cache in all models
o Double your everything
The Intel Core 2 Duo — based on Intel’s advanced Core microarchitecture — offers a second-generation chip born of Intel’s 65-nanometer process. That process lets Intel create incredibly small transistors — small enough, in fact, to fit a hundred inside a single human cell. With two powerful processors designed to share resources and circuitry so unimaginably small, the Intel Core 2 Duo achieves far higher levels of performance while actually consuming less power
o Do more, faster
With its 64-bit processor architecture, the Intel Core 2 Duo can execute instructions in chunks that are twice as large (64 bits versus 32 bits), delivering advanced computational power to MacBook. It all combines to give you speed and agility you’ll notice when working with photos in iPhoto, creating Keynote presentations, or editing podcasts in GarageBand
o Software just works
In the world of MacBook, nothing is complicated. So when it comes to running software on your Intel-based MacBook, prepare for the expected: it just works. Applications with the Universal symbol run on either PowerPC- or Intel-based Mac computers. Most existing applications will run on your Intel-based MacBook, too. Simply launch them as always. Thanks to the Rosetta technology in Mac OS X, they look and feel just like they did before
o Speedy processor
4MB of shared L2 cache augments the advanced Core 2 Duo processor on all models. That really lets MacBook fire on all cylinders. With such substantial L2 cache, data and instructions can be kept close to the two processor cores, greatly increasing performance and allowing the entire system to work more efficiently. And, because the processor cores share the L2 cache, either can use the entire amount if the other happens to be idle. The Intel Core 2 Duo’s enhanced, 128-bit SSE3 vector engine handles 128-bit computations in a single clock cycle, accelerating data manipulation by simultaneously applying a single instruction to multiple data. That means you can get more done in less time. So the next time you use iMovie HD or Final Cut Express to render effects, you can thank the SSE3 vector engine for the snappier performance
* iLife '06
Music. Movies. Photos. Blogs. Podcasts. Books. Calendars. Postcards. iLife is the easiest way to make the most out of every bit of your digital life. Use your superspeedy MacBook to collect, organize, and edit the various pieces. Transform them into mouth-watering masterpieces with Apple-designed templates. Then share the magic moments in beautiful books, colorful calendars, dazzling DVDs, and attractive online journals. All starring you.
o Share photos in a whole new way

The Internet is calling. Answer. Use iWeb to create websites and blogs — complete with podcasts, photos, and movies — and get them online fast. Just drag, drop, and design using your choice of web templates, then publish live to your .Mac home page. iWeb lets you do in minutes what used to take hours. MacBook and iLife ’06 — never before has it been so easy, so fast, and so affordable to enjoy and share your digital life
* Front Row
Enjoy your music, movies, photos, and videos from across the room and even across the house with the Front Row media experience and Apple Remote. Intuitive Apple hardware and software make it easy to put on a show
o Pass the popcorn
Connect your MacBook to a large-format display or TV and dazzle your friends with an elegant full-screen media extravaganza.1 Front Row transforms movie night into a blockbuster Hollywood premiere. Shake up your party with instant access to iTunes music, TV shows, and movies. Make grandma cry with photos from graduation. Watch home movies, music videos, and DVDs
o Simple pleasures
The Apple Remote makes it as easy to navigate through all the cool stuff on your computer as it is to navigate the songs in your iPod. A minimalist six buttons is all you really need. Play. Pause. Skip. Rewind. Crank up the volume. Whatever you like, wherever you sit
o All in the family
Let MacBook and Front Row entertain you by playing songs, slideshows, and videos from other computers in the house.2 Buy new music in the kitchen, play it in your living room. MacBook automatically finds networked computers under your roof — whether they be wireless or wired. Sounds like magic, but it’s just the Bonjour instant networking technology built into every Mac
* iSight
If you’re the kind to carry a digital camera everywhere you go, you and MacBook will really click. MacBook carries a camera around too: a built-in iSight camera, perfect for video chatting, making an impromptu movie, or snapping silly mugshots
o Secret cinematographer
Cleverly integrated above the bright display, an iSight camera sits quietly, awaiting inspiration. When the mood strikes, launch iChat AV, Photo Booth, or iMovie HD and give it your good side. No need to waste valuable primping time installing software or configuring the camera. Just smile
o Picture this
Come on. You know you want to. That iSight just begs to take your snapshot. Open Photo Booth and have a little fun. Add a special image effect — Sepia, Black & White, Glow, Comic Book, X-Ray, Colored Pencil, Thermal Camera, Spotlight, Bulge, Dent, Twirl, Squeeze, Mirror, Light Tunnel, Stretch, Fish Eye. Click. See the screen flash white. (Your MacBook is just that clever.) And there you have it — a high-quality photo you can save as your iChat buddy picture, email to your friends, or put in your iPhoto library
o Movies in a minute
iLife ’06 makes the built-in iSight even more astounding. You can record a short clip right inside iMovie HD. Email it to family. Introduce your DVD. Or use iWeb to create a video blog entry or a podcast
o Next best thing to teleportation
Make short work of long distance when you video chat with friends and family over the Internet using your built-in iSight. Simply launch iChat AV, then click the video icon of a buddy to turn on iSight, and you’re good to go. Without going anywhere at all.
+ iChat your way
# One-to-one personal
Now you can read stories to the kids at bedtime whether you’re across the country or across the ocean, with no additional long distance charges.
# One-way video chat
Even if the person you want to chat with doesn’t have an iSight camera (lucky you), you can still wave hello with a one-way video chat. Just hold down the Control key as you choose a name from your buddy list and select “Invite to Video Chat.”
# 3+1 chat
With support (1) for video chats between up to four people and a stunning, three-dimensional view, iChat AV practically puts your colleagues, friends, and family in the room with you. See their faces reflected into space, just as though you were sitting around a table together.
# Audio chat
Already a versatile instant text messaging application, iChat also lets you hold audio chats with up to 10 people. High-quality audio compression gives you crystal-clear conversations, while full-duplex sound lets everyone speak naturally. Record your conversations in GarageBand with everyone on a separate channel, then post your podcast immediately via iWeb.
* Design
Good design leaves nothing to chance. Great design anticipates it. No surprise, then, that MacBook features little touches — like a klutz-proof power adapter and a nifty magnetic latch — that make your computing experience as streamlined as MacBook itself.
o Thin is in
Perhaps the most profound design element of MacBook is what it lacks: bulk. A mere 1.08 inches thin and weighing in at only 5.1 pounds, MacBook cuts a slim profile on any desk (or in any backpack or briefcase). And since MacBook is sure to become your constant companion, a durable polycarbonate shell keeps it ready for the rough and tumble of everyday life. Now that’s grace under pressure
o Looking good
Whether you’re working on your next Keynote presentation or watching a movie before you catch a flight, every document, video, and photo on your MacBook will look sharp on the glossy 13.3-inch widescreen display. With pixel-perfect 1280-by-800 resolution, it’s great for viewing and working with media
o Key figure
MacBook features a unique keyboard design that sits flush against the bed for a sleeker, lower profile. You’ll also find a firm touch when typing. That ought to make your fingers happy
o Magnetic attraction
Opening and closing your MacBook is a snap, thanks to a magnetic latch that catches without a catch. That means no moving parts to snag, jam, or break
o Power play
The MagSafe Power Adapter is just that: a magnetic connection instead of a physical one. So tripping over a power cord won’t send your shiny new MacBook flying off a table or desk; the cord simply breaks cleanly away, without damage to either the cord or the system. As an added nicety, this means less wear on the connectors
o Dual purpose
And, talk about an attractive feature, by using a mini-DVI to DVI adapter (sold separately), you can connect your MacBook to either the 20-inch or 23-inch Apple Cinema Display for a truly big picture
o The magic scroll
One finger or two? With two-finger scrolling, the trackpad becomes a fast track to wherever you want to go. And if you come from a “right-click world,” it’s easy to make the MacBook fit in your comfort zone. There are shortcuts for right-click functionality, forward delete, and more.
* Wireless
No power cord, no Ethernet cable, no headphone jack, no wires. No problem. With a long battery life and built-in AirPort and Bluetooth, you can get online virtually anywhere. It’s not magic. It’s MacBook.
o Café culture
Take your study session to the local hot spot. MacBook comes with built-in AirPort Extreme 802.11n Wi-Fi, offering up to five times the performance and up to twice the range of previous generations.1 A glance in the menu bar will tell you how strong your wireless signal is, what networks you have the opportunity to join, or how much battery power you have left. Speaking of power, you can work unplugged for up to 6 hours — 2.75 hours if you’re watching DVDs or 3.75 hours if you have wireless turned on — before you need to recharge your MacBook battery. And you can extend battery life by disconnecting peripherals you’re not using; turning Bluetooth off until you need it; quitting applications; ejecting CDs and DVDs; and opting for “Better Battery Life” in the Energy Saver pane of System Preferences
o Budget-conscious travel
Say you and your friends go on spring break. Not only can you share a hotel room, but you can share its Internet connection. How? Just plug in your MacBook and set up your connection. Then open up System Preferences and turn on Internet sharing. Now your friends can connect over AirPort to your Mac and out to the old www. In a matter of minutes, everyone can post a photo blog entry to .Mac.
o Text easy
With MacBook, you won’t strain your thumb sending text messages to your friends. Use all your fingers to type. If you have a Bluetooth cell phone, you can use MacBook to send and receive SMS messages.2 Even better, you don’t have to enter in everyone’s phone number, you can just copy them from your Address Book. (Or fill up your MacBook Address Book from your phone. iSync, included with Mac OS X Tiger, makes it easy.)
o Accessorize
With built-in Bluetooth, you’ve got a built-in holiday or birthday wish list. Prefer a mouse to the scrolling trackpad? Use any Bluetooth mouse. Listen to your tunes with wireless headphones. Or record a podcast with a wireless headset, the same one you use for your cell phone
o Learn to share
With Bonjour networking technology built into every MacBook, the possibilities for wirelessly sharing files, printers, and data are nearly limitless. With Bonjour, your computer discovers other computers and peripherals on the same network. From there, you can print and share with secure simplicity
