Full FeedApple, Give the MacBooks some love!
Apple recently updated the MacBooks, giving them a 64 Mhz boost from 2.16 to 2.2 Ghz and upgrading their video card from one integrated graphics card to another. But the MacBook is in dire need of more. Apple needs to pay attention to the MacBook and change it’s design.

Apple needs to update the MacBook not only for practical purposes but for aesthetic purposes as well. Now that Apple has made the iMac aluminum, Apple’s entire computer lineup is mainly aluminum. Except the MacBook. And next to a MacBook Pro, an iMac and a Mac Pro, it looks cheap. Especially the white ones.

Sorry to say, but I disagree with you opinion.
I think the white MacBook is a real eye catcher
and extremely precious looking.
