Ease of use. Nice screen. Built in camera. Built in microphone. Plenty of Ram to start with. Excellent graphics chip. Bluetooth and 802.1N wireless. Battery life is good. Easy to transport.

Manufacturer's Description
Instead of assembling a notebook from many minor parts, the MacBook was reinvented from just one: the solid-aluminum unibody enclosure. It gets full credit for making MacBook thinner, lighter, and even more stunning. But it's not all beauty. Because of the unibody, this MacBook is also durable. It was designed to take on your world. So slip it into your backpack or briefcase and pull it out wherever you go - it's impressive in any setting. The MacBook uses a graphics processor that...
