Laptops that Match your iPod
 Do you have a black iPod? Have you been embarassed by plugging it into a white iBook? Well, your problems are over, now that Apple is shipping a Black MacBook.

You can get a very similarly-configured MacBook for a lot less, with the only big difference being the graphics processor and the backlit keyboard.The base model (in white) features:- 1.83GHz Intel Core Duo
