Performance

The unit comes stock with 512MB RAM, a 60GB 5400 RPM HD, an Intel GMA 950 Graphics solution,this graphic card improves the gaming performance and also improves the system performance. The GMA 950 has a wide range of special effects. Even on the included memory, OS is faster, and more responsive than on previous Apple laptop models. With a full load of ram, the machine is a absolute performer. Most applications open immediately. This presents a slight issue for those looking for a design-centric notebook. There is another option by the Intel system -- running your Windows applications, on your Mac.

The one area that is minus to the MacBook is gaming performance. Simply put, if you are a gamer, then the MacBook is not the system for your needs. Most of the latest games will run slowly due to the limited graphics memory. For a person looking for a mobile gaming system, the MacBook Pro is going to be the best one. Everywhere else, the Intel Core Duo shines certainly recommend upgrading the memory to the maximum if possible....
