I loved mine too, right up until it cracked on me. Alu MacBook here i come :)
you could have taken it in to apple and they would have replaced the whole macbook casing for free cuz many people have been having problems with the macbook cracking. :D
 
I had my whitebook just over two years (which included a year with me in Iraq). When I sold it, it looked as good as the day I bought it.

That being said, it was replaced by a blackbook because the two-tone white-gray is ugly IMHO.

exactly the new macbooks with the two-tone crap is totally ugly IMO.

looks like im not the only one against the new macbook. :D
 
This thread is racist.
lol just because we are talking a WHITE macbook doesnt mean were racist or anything.

the fact that the new mabooks dont have a color difference is maybe because apple doesnt want to be racist. LOL!
 
I got my refurb whitebook a couple of weeks before the product line was refreshed but absolutely love it. Still trying to convince other-half to take it for a test drive. Funny, she took to the imac a lot quicker...
 
i got my 2006 white macbook of ebay with a broken screen , no battery , no hard drive , for £62 . i got it working all in for £200 and its got factory n spec airport :D:D:apple:

Well the keys are fine right now, but the surface of the actual body is a fingerprint magnet. I heard some Mr. Clean Magic Eraser will get it off.

So will the black cloth it came with dipped in a little water. That is all I do and it looks like new. Mine doesn't attract a lot of fingerprints. It only takes 2 minutes to clean the outside anyways.
 
My whitebook is great!

Got £649 2.4Ghz refurb (tho' looks like new) last week. Was only expecting 2GB ram, but when I checked the 'about this mac' showed 4GB. Score! :D
Am upgrading to 500GB hard disk soon.

So much faster than my iBook G4 :D
 
I love my crackbook:)

I must say, other than the cracks, I absolutely love my MacBook, and plan to hang onto it for quite a while.

My MacBook was my first ever :apple: computer, and you know what they say: once you go Mac, you will never go back:D
