Apple is making the MacBook available in black and white |
Apple has moved closer to completing its shift to Intel chips used by its PC rivals.
The company has launched new MacBook laptops to replace its previous consumer model, the iBook.
Apple is in the process of moving all its computer products from IBM to Intel chips as part of its efforts to attract more consumers and increase its 5% share of the US market.
The remaining Macs still running on IBM are the high-end desktop PowerMacs.
"Apple began the transition to Intel Core Duo-based notebooks in February with the 15-inch MacBook Pro, and now just 90 days later we have completed the transition with the release of the all new MacBook," said Philip Schiller, Apple's senior vice president of worldwide product marketing.
