Macworld's first look at the new MacBook

By at 4:32 pm Wednesday, May 17

Macworld's Cyrus Farivar and Jason Snell each have first look reviews of the new MacBook, which was announced yesterday.
200605171631Snell: "The biggest change with this keyboard is its look. Previous Apple laptops have featured keyboards with keys that are wide at the base, but narrower at the top. As a result, even though there are fairly large spaces between the square areas where your fingers contact the keys, there are only tiny gaps down at the base of the keys."

Farivar: "[The 13-inch] MacBook fits quite nicely into the Booq PowerSleeve12—only sticking out a little bit, but not enough to prevent the bag from closing. The extra resolution is quite nice too, as it allows me to have a good-sized browser window while keeping an instant message client open on the side."
