Are the speakers on the aluminum unibody macbook better than the ones on the standard white one?

Going to get a new macbook. The only complaint I had with the standard white macbook was that the speakers were tiny, the sound quality was tinny and even at top volume it was almost inaudible.

Are the speakers on the new aluminum one any better?

I have both - sound about the same.

What is a unibody and why do I care?

You may have heard the term "unibody" being used in conjunction with an Apple MacBook or MacBook Pro laptop during the past year. You hear this term, because Apple loves to talk about their design features, even featuring photos and videos of the unibody component of the MacBook and MacBook Pro on their website. http://movies.apple.com/media/us/mac/macbookpro/2009/tours/apple-macbookpro-design_video-us-20090608_r640-9cie.mov

Apple has always been fanatical about the design elements of every Mac. With the unibody MacBook and MacBook Pro, the product designers took a number of pieces that were typically used to build a laptop and combined them into one. This single piece becomes the body of the MacBook and MacBook Pro laptops, hence the term "unibody". The entire top case is milled out of a single piece of aluminum, giving the unibody MacBook and MacBook Pro systems an extremely rigid frame and a high quality "fit and finish" that you won't find on other laptop computers.

In October of 2009, Apple released a new, non-aluminum MacBook to replace the aging sub-$1000 line of MacBook systems that had not changed much since May of 2006. This new MacBook is also a unibody, but it is formed from a single block of polycarbonite, rather than aluminum.

The reason why you should care about the aluminum unibody MacBook and MacBook Pro as well as the polycarbonite unibody MacBook is that the unibody design increases the sturdiness, the fit and finish quality and the overall reliability. The unibody is good for the Mac and good for all of us Mac users.

TechRestore technicians, being Apple Certified, receive technical training on these new models and we have systems coming in daily for repairs and upgrades. The most popular repairs currently are replacement of the glass panel that covers the LCD screen and replacement of the LCD screen itself.  We are also seeing more systems coming in for the massive 750 Gigabyte hard drive upgrade that we offer. TechRestore also offers the only anti-glare, Matte-finish screen upgrades on the planet for the 13-inch MacBook Pro models, removing the glass screen cover, replacing the LCD screen with an anti-glare version and installing a custom bezel that surrounds the front of the screen. This matte-finish screen replacement won a Best of Show award during MacWorld Expo 2009.
