The primary improvements that Apple made in the MacBook Core 2 Duo were the addition of a faster processor, improved AirPort, and a larger RAM maximum capacity. The apparatus for presentation included an Apple iMac 8.1 computer with a 2.4 GHz Intel Core Duo processor. As with the original MacBook, this laptop included an iSight camera and used the same MagSafe power connector. The same industrial design employed by the MacBook Core Duo was also applied to the Core 2 Duo, as the overall size, shape, and layout of the laptop did not change.

It came in two colors: basic white, and optional (and more expensive) black. The iMac 'Core 2 Duo' 2.8 24-Inch Aluminum (Early 2008/Penryn) features a 2.8 GHz Intel 'Core 2 Duo' processor (E8235), with two independent processor 'cores' on a single silicon chip, a 6 MB shared level 2 cache, a 1066 MHz system bus, 2 GB of RAM (800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM, PC2-6400), a 320 GB (7200 RPM) Serial ATA hard drive, a vertically-mounted. This laptop was an update to the MacBook Core Duo Repair that was introduced six months earlier. MacBooks tend to look very similar, and it's important to know which machine you have before ordering any replacement parts. Use the laptop identification system to help you identify your machine. If your computer has a metal case, you could have the MacBook Unibody or MacBook Air.

If your computer's case is plastic and 'About This Mac' says you have a Core 2 Duo, then you're in the right place. You can verify that you have a Core 2 Duo MacBook by checking the processor information through 'About This Mac' in the Apple menu.
