Apple Updates $999 MacBook
20 October, 2009 @ 11:34 am by LioncourtToday, Apple unveiled an update to its low-end $999 USD MacBook. The revamped MacBook features a unibody construction, similar to that of the aluminum MacBook Pros, but continues to use white polycarbonate for its outer shell. Also like its more powerful siblings, it offers a backlit LED display and the glass multi-touch trackpad, making it capable of supporting VoiceOver’s new Trackpad Commander feature, unlike the previous incarnation.
It remains at the 13.3-inch size and boasts a 2.26GHz processor, 2GB of 1066MHz RAM, and a 250GB hard disk. The graphics chip has also been upgraded to the NVIDIA GeForce 9400M.
The new MacBook offers more bang for your buck at the same $999 USD price point, and is available now.
