Model History<\/h2><\/div>\n\n

The standard MacBook model came in a white plastic enclosure, while the high-end model was also offered with a black enclosure.<\/p>\n\n

A completely new design was added to the family in January 2008 with the release of the three-pound MacBook Air. The MacBook Air, touted as the world's thinnest notebook, featured an aluminum enclosure. To create an incredibly thin and light machine, Apple made a number of compromises, including omitting the optical drive, using a 1.8" hard drive (normal is 2.5"), and integrating the RAM into the logic board, preventing future RAM upgrades.<\/p>\n\n

After more than two years and numerous incremental upgrades, Apple announced a completely new MacBook model in October 2008, the MacBook Unibody. The MacBook Unibody is a hybrid of the original MacBook and the MacBook Air, packing all the features of the MacBook into a more stylish and lighter-weight aluminum enclosure.<\/p>\n\n

The MacBook line was discontinued in Mid 2010, when the MacBook Air took up the role of Apple's consumer laptop line and was re-released in 2015 with a single USB-C port. As of July 9, 2019, the MacBook series has been discontinued again.<\/p>\n\n
