MacBook(13-inch, 2009 Late)

Background

Introduced in October 2009, the MacBook (Late 2009) was a significant improvement on the MacBook (Mid 2009) that it replaced. It included a redesigned polycarbonate unibody case with a rubberized anti-skid bottom, an LED-backlit screen, a glass multi-touch trackpad, and a longer-performing built-in battery. Notably absent were firewire or dedicated audio input, which had both been present in every polycarbonate MacBook since its initial release. The MacBook (Late 2009) kept the previous models $999 U.S. price point, with a 2.26 GHz processor, 2 GB of RAM, and a 250 GB hard drive.
