What is my macbook?

[Trevy the Great]

Several months ago I bought a refurbished Macbook from Apple.
I was led to believe that it was a Macbook Pro, but upon receiving the little thing I found that it was labeled 'Macbook' under the screen. It has an aluminum casing and from what I've seen, looks exactly like a Macbook Pro.
Now, what is causing me consternation is the speed of the machine. According to many sources on the internet, it is supposed to be quite a bit faster than it actually is - mainly I want to play the game Battlefield 2142, which I am assured plays very quickly on a Macbook pro, but I can't get a framerate higher than like 2 FPS.
For further reference, here's the information from my system profiler:

Model Name: MacBook
Model Identifier: MacBook5,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 3 MB
Memory: 2 GB
Bus Speed: 1.07 GHz
Boot ROM Version: MB51.007D.B03
SMC Version (system): 1.40f2
Serial Number (system): 739330GC8QT
Hardware UUID: 72FF314F-D42F-5B61-9598-BB5A79D3EC2F
Sudden Motion Sensor:
State: Enabled

Does anyone else have this sort of question or know what this computer is? Perhaps there's a way to find out on the machine that I don't know about?
Please help!

Cheers,

Looks like you got a refurb aluminum MacBook, like this one: http://store.apple.com/us/product/FB467LL/A

Did you order the refurb MacBook assuming it was a refurb MacBook Pro because it was aluminum?
Or did you order a refurb MacBook Pro and they sent a refurb MacBook?

There's an aluminum Macbook!?

I didn't know that, and the Apple website isn't exactly forthcoming on that information. Looking at the situation, I must have seen the Macbook and assumed it was a Pro, because they look identical. Now I just feel mislead.

Thanks for your help, guys. That answers the question.

As for your other question about 2142; the framerate shouldn't be that bad. It won't be amazing, but 2FPS? Turn the graphic settings down a bit and it'll definitely get to the point of being playable!

The graphics and audio quality I have set at the lowest possible level, and the game crawls like a one-year-old; absolutely unplayable.

You weren't misled - you just weren't paying attention.
