Apple MacBook (white 2009 edition) review
The last MacBook left in Apple's lineup has had a worthwhile update. It offers specs and performance on a par with the higher-end MacBook Pros but for significantly less money. It's a sturdy machine and the keyboard is excellent, but the white plastic design is starting to look dated Read more

Apple MacBook (Core 2 Duo 2.0GHz) review
Apple's 13.3-inch MacBooks with Core 2 Duo, available in the standard Apple colours of black and white, are nearly as powerful as their 15- and 17-inch Pro cousins, and they include a lot of the same features -- they're a no-brainer for anyone who wants to step up to an Apple laptop or upgrade their older MacBook Read more

Apple MacBook Pro (13-inch, summer 2009) review
Apple has promoted its basic 13-inch, aluminium unibody MacBook to the Pro series, adding more features while reducing the price of the base configuration. The end result is one of the most universally useful laptops available, although there's still some features we'd like to see included Read more

Apple MacBook Pro (2008 Edition, 15-in, 2.5GHz) review
The Apple MacBook Pro (2008 Edition, 15-in, 2.5GHz) laptop is the first upgrade to the line since the release of the MacBook Air. With its design the same, it features the new Intel Penryn-class processors and borrows the multi-touch gesturing system from the Air Read more

Apple MacBook Pro (17-inch unibody) review
The redesigned 17-inch MacBook Pro has an aluminium unibody design, a new multitouch trackpad and a dual-graphics set-up for boosting either battery life or performance. Those tweaks, combined with excellent performance and impressive battery life, help to make it an appealing, but expensive, laptop Read more

Apple MacBook Pro (15-inch, summer 2009) review
The latest update to Apple's premium 15-inch MacBook Pro makes only minor modifications. Nevertheless, a faster CPU, better battery and the addition of an SD card slot, together with a price cut, make it a substantial improvement on its predecessor Read more

Apple MacBook Pro (17-inch, 2.33GHz) review
The high-end 17-inch Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro mixes Apple's lauded industrial design and user-friendly operating system with the kind of high-end hardware usually seen only on the PC side, yet it's still very light for a laptop of this size. It's a good choice for anyone needing an easily transportable big-screen laptop Read more

Apple MacBook Air review
Apple's new MacBook Air may not be a true ultraportable, but it still breaks new ground. At just 19mm at its thickest part, Apple's so-called 'world's thinnest notebook' includes most of the usual MacBook features, plus a multi-touch touchpad for gesture controls Read more

Apple MacBook (aluminium 2008 edition) review
There's a new breed of MacBook in town, and it's more attractive, more powerful and more expensive than ever before. The new design has much in common with the aluminium-swathed MacBook Pro, but sports a smaller 13.3-inch screen and less graphical power Read more
