When it comes to laptops, there are very few manufacturers in which can produce a laptop that is gorgeous and works like a charm. However, Apple has done just that. They have taken their ever-popular technology and systems and created the Apple MacBook 13.3″ Display – Model: MA700LL/A. This laptop can connect wirelessly to the Internet, and also lets you enjoy the video chat mode with a camera built into the screen. This computer is ran via the Intel Core™2 Duo mobile processor with 667MHz front side bus, a 4MB shared L2 cache and a 2.0GHz processor speed. This computer fast and can handle anything that you can throw at it.
Some of the other features includes a 1GB PC2-5300 DDR2 SDRAM for multitasking power, allowing any student to listen to iTunes, check your email, research a paper and chat with a bud through the built-in iSight — all at the same time, and not experience any operation lag. Also, the above RAM is expandable to 2GB (2 SoDIMM slots). There is also a slot-loading DVD+/-RW/CD-RW SuperDrive with double-layer support it can record up to 8.5GB of data or 5 hours of video using the compatible DVD+R DL media.
The screen of this laptop is a 13.3 TFT-LCD widescreen display with 1280 x 800 resolution, which gives you amazingly clear pictures and video. The hard drive is a 80GB Serial ATA hard drive, with 5400 rpm. This machine was made to move-it! When dealing with the graphics, this computer is astonishing. It has the Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950 with 64MB DDR2 SDRAM. Some of the features that come along with having this graphic accelerator includes shared video memory, video mirroring capabilities, supports DVI, VGA, S-Video and composite video outputs, which require optional adapter. This machine was built to support video media, which is great for professionals and amateurs alike.
This computer has one FireWire port (400 Mbps) and two high-speed USB 2.0 ports. It also comes with built-in Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR (Enhanced Data Rate) wireless interface. Speaking of wireless, the MacBook comes with a Built-In AirPort Extreme Card and antenna for wireless networking up to 54 Mbps (802.11g), as well as having an optional 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet. And let me tell you, this is only the beginning with built-in features. It also has a before-mentioned iSight Web camera for amazingly clear video chats right out of the box. There is also built-in stereo speakers and an omnidirectional microphone, and of course, an apple remote is included.
The operating system for this MacBook is the Mac OS X v10.4 “Tiger”. This software package comes complete with Spotlight, QuickTime, iLife ’06, which includes iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie HD, iDVD, iWeb and Garage Band – and that isn’t even all of it. One would think that with a computer as complete as this one, it would weigh quite a bit. However, Apple has stuffed all of these features into a computer that weighs only 5.2 pounds, and measures only 1.1″ thick. Also, this computer is powered by a lithium-polymer batter, which gives you up to six hours of battery life. This computer was built to be on the road. So, no matter why you are needing a new laptop, definitely consider this computer when out shopping.
