Thanks for the photos. I have one request and it is for a clear photo of the back of the computer with the lid closed (where the air vents/speakers are). I've hunted on Flickr and can't find a decent one anywhere!

I would like to see that too if you don't mind taking a shot of it.
 
Thank you all very much!

I'll take a photo of the back, lid closed, when it gets a bit lighter. It's so dark this morning!! Bloody winter.
 
As requested....

I have added a set of photos of my own to Flickr. 2.0GHz model.

nice shots!!! interesting mst of the height reductio is from the lid... but all good :)

i thought the ram/hdd was user replaceable so it should be easy like on the older macbooks? seems a bit scary if you're presented with that bare bones guts inside.. lol!! almost like upgrading a pc!!!! :eek:
 
The HDD replacement is easy - it's one screw underneath the bottom part of the laptop. It's the RAM that's difficult to get to. 8 screws to get into it and then a further few I believe to actually remove it.
 
The new Aluminium MacBook = new 12" PowerBook G4
The new Aluminium MacBook reminds me of the 12" PowerBook G4 very much and be considered a replacement for it now.
