Apple MacBook "Core 2 Duo" 1.83 13"
Introduction-
The Apple MacBook "Core 2 Duo" 1.83 13-Inch features a 1.83 GHz Intel "Core 2 Duo" processor (T5600), with two independent processor "cores" on a single silicon chip, a 2 MB shared "on chip" level 2 cache, a 667 MHz frontside bus, 512 MB of 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM (PC2-5300) installed in pairs (two 256 MB modules), a 60.0 GB Serial ATA (5400 RPM) hard drive with "Sudden Motion Sensor" technology, an 8X slot-loading DVD-ROM/CD-RW "Combo" drive, an Intel GMA 950 integrated "graphics processor with 64 MB of DDR2 SDRAM shared with main memory", and a 13.3" widescreen TFT active-matrix "glossy" display (1280x800 native resolution).
The MacBook "Late 2006 Core 2 Duo" series shares the same easy to upgrade case design as the original MacBook models, and connectivity likewise includes AirPort Extreme (although the "Late 2006" models support 802.11n -- as well as 802.11g -- after a firmware upgrade), Bluetooth 2.0+EDR, Gigabit Ethernet, a FireWire "400" port, two USB 2.0 ports, optical digital audio in/out, and video out capabilities (mini-DVI) that supports an external display.
The MacBook "Late 2006 Core 2 Duo" and original "Core Duo" models also share the same "scrolling TrackPad", built-in iSight video camera, Apple Remote for use with Apple Front Row software, "MagSafe" power connector, "flush against the bed" keyboard that does not touch the screen, and "no moving parts" magnetic latch that "catches without a catch".
