New Macbooks

Today Apple finally introduced their next generation of notebooks. The first Mr. Jobs alteration was the introduction of a different material that the cases were constructed from. If you owned one of the last generations you surely would have had to get the case replaced as the first plastic that was used was easily susceptible to cracking and chipping. In addition to the weak material, the black constantly had to be wiped down if you didn't want them to look like a shopping mall glass door window. Accordingly the Macbook recieved an aluminum shell with a black glass display along with an extra 5 hours of battery life. The new prices are now $1299 for the 2.0GHz/160GB/2GB RAM/Superdrive version and $1599 for the 2.4 GHz/250GB version.
