Hey Doc! Tell Me about the MacBook
The first generation of Apples MacBook replaced the aging iBook G4. Still white, still student tough but much much faster. The new Intel Core Duo processor righteously kicked the ass of the poor old G4. The new size 13in screen was a good size. In all a great form factor that proved hard to beat and was remarkably long lived. No real weaknesses. Students note, these do NOT look any cooler covered in stickers and are in fact quite easy to keep clean. Core Duo processor was quickly upgraded to more powerful Core2Duo.
