MacBook disassembled


Kodawarisan has posted disassembly photos of the new MacBook. The new NVIDIA GeForce 9400M GPU can be seen on the logic board, along with the Intel Core 2 Duo processor. The battery door can be removed, without using a coin, by pressing the latch with a finger, which reduces the possibility of scratching the aluminum. The hard drive is also accessible beside the battery, but is retained by a T6-Torx screw. The logic board, SuperDrive, and memory are now covered by a second panel on the bottom of the device, eliminating the need to pull the keyboard panel.

    Ultra-simple...

    to service. They should have good turnaround time. This design is so simple it will be astounding if anything can go wrong. RAM and harddrive are right at one's fingertips. No $400 Windows notebook is going to be compared equally with this. I realize you can buy three Acers for the price of one MacBook, but I'll still go for the MacBook.
