Before I buy it. I thought it was so perfect when I was on it at the store and then I started reading all these things about it online, some were bad, some were saying it was great, I just don't know anymore! If you have the new one with the 10hour battery, or even the october 2009 unibody one and 2gb of ram.. tell me everything you think about it.! :]
Got a tip for us?

I think its pretty awesome, definitely an awesome mac for a very wide target audience! Same CPU as the more expensive 13" MacBook Pro, same hard drive, all that is different is less RAM (which won't matter to non-power users) and the lack of an aluminum case - which some people might prefer! I personally prefer the look of the white macbook!
I have the "Oct 09" MB and it's absolutely amazing. I simply love this computer,the best computer I've ever owned.

Also firewire800, SD card slot and backlit keyboard.
I have the october 2009 macbook. I really like the design, the color, the thinness, and the battery life. It's a tough call between the pro 13 inch and the macbook 13 inch. The pro is a better value, 4 gb ram makes a huge difference, but for me the macbook white had better looks.
Now I am jealous of the new 10 hour battery life. The old 2009 macbook was rated for 7 hours and I get around 6.5 hours.

I'm still happy with my 2.0Ghz whitebook from 2009 (non-unibody)... I'd love the newest but its not needed when this one is still so "new"...
