Identification and Background
The new design abandoned the interesting look of its predecessor for a more restrained white plastic casing. Key features of this revision were the addition of an extra USB port and a higher-resolution screen, even though the overall size of the laptop was reduced.
Use the laptop identification system to help you identify your machine. iBooks tend to look very similar, and it's important to know which machine you have before ordering any replacement parts.
