Apple CEO Tim Cook at its March 9 event unveiled the all-new MacBook, the thinnest and lightest version of its laptop in silver, space grey and gold finishes.
Measuring just 13.1 mm at its thickest point, the new MacBook design is 24 percent thinner than the 11-inch MacBook Air. The new MacBook weighs just 2 pounds. (Apple is dropping Air from the name and is calling this simply the MacBook.)
Keys are bigger and backlit with LEDs, and the screen features a 12-inch Retina display (2304x1440), currently available only in the higher-end, heavier MacBook Pro line.
Force Touch trackpad allows for clicks, fast-forwarding, and more depending on how hard you press.
Also Apple's new MacBook is silent - no fan. In other words, the New MacBook is the first fanless MacBook.
Apple calls the new MacBook the word's most energy-efficient notebook. It is the thinnest and lighter Mac ever made.
