The "non-Pro" MacBook line initially shipped from 2006 until 2012. It was re-introduced as an entirely new "one port" notebook with a "Retina" display and sold from 2015 until 2019.
The MacBook notebooks can be divided into four basic designs -- White or Black Polycarbonate, Aluminum "Unibody", White "Unibody" Polycarbonate, and the compact "Retina" models. However, there are significant differences between systems within each basic design. Complete technical specs are below.
