Today Apple released new MacBooks – consumer based notebook computers. These notebooks have been the most popular option for “Windows Switchers,” because of their price, portability and array of options. The new MacBooks have less options, but only because they now come standard with 2GB of RAM. Also included in the consumer notebook is the latest Intel Core 2 Duo processor – which brings speeds up to 2.6GHz. The update does not stop there! You can now option for a 250GB HDD, which was before only available on the MacBook Pro.

Apple did not see fit to include the infamous multi-touch trackpad that is found on the MacBook Air and New MacBook Pro laptops. Also excluded from the MacBook is the Apple Remote that unleashes the FrontRow software – included on every Mac.
