Apple MacBook MC240LL/A 13.3-Inch Laptop Review from Cuyler. Least expensive MacBook, but go Pro, This is Apple’s least expensive notebook, but I believe the 2009 13-inch MacBook Pro is worth the higher price for the following reasons:

- it’s a little faster

- it’s a little lighter

- the aluminum finish is more durable

- the all metal body should dissipate heat better

- trackpad is larger and fingers glide easy over its glass surface

- multi-touch gestures make it easier to navigate

- LED-backlit display has better color and wider viewing angle

- keyboard lights up at night

- expands up to 8GB of memory (useful for the future)

- longer battery life

- the matte aluminum finish with black keys is beautiful

For me, these features justify the extra cost, which is why I purchased the Pro — others might not feel they are important. I am writing this review mostly so people thinking about the white MacBook at least consider the Pro version before making their final purchase.

Note, the 13-inch MacBook Pro has two versions. I got the least expensive which has a slightly lower processor speed, smaller disk and just 2GB of RAM. The processor speed of the more expensive model is not significantly faster and the disk and memory can be upgraded later when prices drop (I eventually will get a solid-state drive and 8GB).

There are some rumors floating around that this entry-level MacBook is going to be updated soon. No saying when that will happen — Apple has organized a press event for September 9th, but they may only announce their new iPods then.
