I was in shop yesterday and there were 2 Macbooks, Macbook&Macbook Pro.
In Macbook Pro the icons which close etc. something were like that:

and in Macbook they were white.
The colour of them depends on kind of Macbook, or the MAC OS version?

It shouldn't matter which Mac you are using. It should all look like the picture you posted.

I can't find a picture, but in Macbook these icons were white/grey.

The grey ones are due to the MacBook being configured with e Graphite theme. It's a built in OS X theme variation where buttons are grey-ish instead of all-colorful.

I can't find a picture, but in Macbook these icons were white/grey.

In System Preferences you can change the look of those buttons between the coloured ones and white/grey ones like what you're describing (it's technically called "graphite"). This option is available on all Macs, but by default they are all red/yellow/green - someone must have messed around with the system settings.

Also, if you open another window the coloured buttons in every other window will turn graphite, while only the active window shows the coloured buttons (see screenshot for example).

Thank you for all answers.
And Last question; Does RuneScape(a game) work on MAC OS?

 

[Simmity]

Yes, runescape will work as it is a JAVA based game, it will run in the browser, and therefore not OS dependent.
