White Apple MacBook, Model A1181

2.13 GHz Core 2 Duo CPU
2 GB RAM
160 GB Hard Drive
OS X 10.6.3 Snow Leopard freshly installed

These laptops are in very good condition with normal signs of use (minor scratches and moderate scuffing on outside of case, difficult to photograph). 

The interior is nearly pristine with no cracks or chipping. 

No chips on palm rest! 

There are some inventory and serial numbers written on the bottom in marker. Some effort has been made to remove these numbers, but some of these laptops will still have some of the numbers visible, depending on the type of marker used. See photos for examples.

The hard drive has been completely wiped and OS X 10.6.3 Snow Leopard has been reinstalled. Buyer should download and install the 10.6.8 update directly from Apple.

Tested and everything but the battery is guaranteed fully functional. 

The battery takes a full charge (5 dots on the charge indicator), but no testing has been performed to assess actual battery life or discharge rate.

Charger is NOT included.

These photos may not be of the actual laptop sent (due to the impracticality of posting individualized listings for the large number of units we have in stock). However, the example photos in this listing are representative of the quality you should expect to receive. Laptops shipped may have a different configuration of the minor cosmetic defects outlined above.

From "EveryMac.com"
Quietly unveiled without a press release -- just like the model it replaced -- the Apple MacBook "Core 2 Duo" 2.13 13-Inch (White - Mid-2009) features a 45 nm "Penryn" 2.13 GHz Intel "Core 2 Duo" processor (P7450), with two independent processor "cores" on a single silicon chip, a 3 MB shared "on chip" level 2 cache, a 1066 MHz frontside bus, 2 GB of 800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM (PC2-6400) installed in pairs (two 1 GB modules), a 160 GB Serial ATA (5400 RPM) hard drive, an 8X DL "SuperDrive", a NVIDIA GeForce 9400M "graphics processor with 256 MB of SDRAM shared with main memory", and a 13.3" widescreen TFT active-matrix "glossy" display (1280x800 native resolution).

The MacBook "Core 2 Duo" 2.13 13" (White - Mid-2009) shares the same white polycarbonate case as the MacBook "Core 2 Duo" 2.0 13" (White - Early 2009) that it replaced and connectivity is the same as well with AirPort Extreme (802.11a/b/g/n), Gigabit Ethernet, a FireWire "400" port, two USB 2.0 ports, optical digital audio in/out, and video out capabilities (mini-DVI) that supports an external display. The hard drive is larger and the memory is faster. Interestingly, Apple also officially claims that this model provides 5 hours of battery life (up from 4.5 hours on the model replaced).

Internally, this system has quite a bit in common with the MacBook "Core 2 Duo" 2.0 13" (Unibody) and is equipped with the same NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics, but uses a faster processor and slower RAM (800 MHz DDR2 compared to 1066 MHz DDR3 in the "Unibody" models).
