The newly refreshed MacBook white is available for booking since couple of few days ago on the Malaysia Apple online store.
With the same price (RM3699), it now has better spec such as new graphic card NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics processor with 256MB of DDR2 SDRAM shared, and 2GB (2x 1 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM) which is now the default setup.
For comparison, this is the old spec, with 2.1GHz
* Intel Core 2 Duo
* 1GB DDR2 Memory
* 120GB hard drive1
* Intel GMA X3100 graphics
* Standard keyboard
* White polycarbonate shell
It come also with FireWire 400 port (up to 400 Mbps), which I read on couple of MacBook blog is the most surprise inclusion on this 2009 refresh.
I almost buy this MacBook white if not because a friend of mine who went to New Zealand for business trip offer to buy iPhone 3g 16GB, which he said the price is equivalent to RM2100. That is pretty cheap compared to the current price on the local market . Hope that true. Otherwise I might end up with this MB at the end of this months (hopefully).
Lowendmac has made a decent comparison betwen 2008 and 2009 white MacBook. Check it out.
