MacBook

By (Michael DeAgonia) Apple's new 13-in. MacBook still costs $999, but it now comes with a faster processor under the hood and a more curvaceous, and stylish, look.

By Darren Murph We know you've got questions, and if you're brave enough to ask the world for answers, here's the outlet to do so. This week's Ask Engadget question is coming to us from Matt, who badly, badly needs to give his digits something to do on a trackpad whilst enjoying media from the couch.

Dell today officially launched the Adamo XPS, the highest-end version of its designer ultraportable. The system is championed as the thinnest notebook ever and measures just 0.39 inches at its thickest point. Dell accomplishes the feat by tucking most of the computer components into the...

By Michael Rose In operation, there's not much to worry about: I plugged in all three ports to a unibody MacBook Pro and connected an HDMI display, then went to the normal Mac OS X Displays preference pane, where I found a full assortment of resolutions for my enjoyment. The top few 'television' options may...

By Matt Burns So basically what this thing does is power and charge a MacBook and iPhone (or any USB device) simultaneously. The battery pack even runs at both 16.5V and 18.5V like the OEM Apple chargers, which means the battery shouldn’t be put under any unnecessary strain.

By Steven Sande In a move sure to rile up the crowds of people (including our very own Erica Sadun) who have converted cheap Intel Atom-powered netbooks into tiny MacBook-like hackintoshes, several sites are reporting that Apple will kill support for the battery-sipping CPU in the next release of Snow...

Apple's new 13-inch MacBook delivers a lower cost option to the company's MacBook Pro line of aluminum notebooks, while providing a similar unibody construction, much improved display, glass trackpad, and environmentally friendly design.

By Jonathan Seff In bringing the unibody treatment to the white MacBook, Apple has added many pro features while removing FireWire and the infrared port.

By Vincent Nguyen Our iMac is the entry-level 27-inch model, with a 2560 x 1440 16:9 display, 3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 4GB of DDR3 memory and a 1TB 7,200rpm hard-drive. On the side there’s the same 8x SuperDrive as its predecessor, while graphics are courtesy of an ATI Radeon HD 4670 with 256MB of ded...

By Jason Chen Benchmarks and Battery Life Comparing the 13-inch aluminum unibody MacBook of 2008 to the 13-inch aluminum unibody MacBook Pro to the 13-inch MacBook now shows that there really isn't a big difference between the three models. The small discrepancies fall inside the margin of error, an...

By John Biggs Another caveat is that this thing will get dirty and scratched almost immediately. Polycarbonate is not related “carbonite” or “polyadamantium” – it’s related to plastic. As such, your beautiful white MacBook will soon be a beatiful gray MacBook if you’re not careful.

By Justin Yu Credit: Sarah Tew/CNET) Along with a redesign of the iMac, MacBook, and Mac Mini, Apple today also unveiled its new Magic Mouse, a departure from the underwhelming Mighty Mouse Wireless that flew beneath the consumer radar back in 2006. The new Magic Mouse is also the next device (after th...

By Daniel Brusilovsky Here at TechCrunch HQ, almost all of us have laptops, with some connecting their laptops to an external display. In my case, I use a 15" Unibody MacBook Pro connected to a 22" Gateway display. I have always gone by the theory that the more real estate space you have, the more productive you are. T...

By Joanna Stern Internal Power The HP Envy 13's 2.13GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor (along with 3GB of RAM) doesn't quite have as much as power as the MacBook Pro's 2.26GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, but it still keeps up with everyday tasks. When running Firefox with over 10 tabs open, iTunes and TweetDeck the system sho...

By Brian X. Chen See Also: If looks were all that mattered, HP’s Mini 5101 would’ve been a 10. But alas, bumpy QuickTime video playback and a just-OK battery life knocked the Mini 5101 to a 6 in our ratings. Here’s a snippet from our review: We love the matte, full-sized keyboard — soft on the fingertips, but ju...

By (Tom Yager) When I reviewed Apple's prior "unibody" 15-inch MacBook Pro, I gave it high marks. Now Apple is building on that peerless platform with higher performance, an upgraded display, longer battery life and a lower price.

By Nilay Patel Let's be straight here: we're a little perplexed by the new MacBook Pro line. On one hand, Apple didn't really make enough changes to warrant a whole new review of the unibody lineup, and minor speed bumps aside, briefly using one of the new machines feels pretty much like using most any rece...

By Mark Wilson It's impossible not to be at least a little impressed with the MacBook Air, but who can spend $2,000 on that laptop? The solution? The MSI X340, a $900 MacBook Air. And it's a great idea...in theory... Extremely light and thin form Runs Vista adequately Short battery life

By Om Malik For now, the little device has helped me overcome the space limitations of my MacBook Air. If you own a MacBook Air, just like the Apple Display, Pogoplug is a must-have add-on. And even if you don’t own a MacBook Air, you still should buy one. Pogoplug is perhaps the most useful little gizmo you...

By Doug Aamoth The design is very pleasing. It’s slightly thicker, yet slightly lighter than the MacBook Air. The thickness reaches a maximum of 0.78 inches (versus the Air’s 0.76 inches) while allowing for VGA, Ethernet, and HDMI ports, two USB ports, a card reader, and mic and headphone jacks. The actual b...

By Nicholas Deleon So Apple just released a firmware update for the new 17-inch MacBook Pro that supposedly fixes that nasty screen tearing issue we discussed. As with all firmware updates, you're asked to pray to your god of choice in order to ensure that the update goes smoothly.

By Wilson Rothman The good news is, the new Mac Mini is a worthy little beast.

The internal redesign of the Mac Mini is really about coupling that Core 2 Duo with Nvidia integrated graphics, and...
