According to design insiders, the new line of Apple MacBooks will see some major design revisions with the next release. The chart to the right illustrates the various design changes that have befallen the Apple mobile line since the original iBook.
The design changed will not just be cosmetic, however. Along with the face-lift, the internals will get a boost as well. The MacBook has not had a major cosmetic update for a while, and as Apple's industrial design cycle comes to a close, the company has decided to bring the look more in line with the popular new iMac line. The internals will also be based on Intel's new Centrino 2 platform, so a new logic board will need to be accommodated for. This also gives Apple a change to make any engineering improvements or other changes internally. The new MacBook like is scheduled to hit store shelves in Q3 2008. If you're in the market to purchase a new MacBook, now would be a good time to wait and see if the new line is more in line with your wants and needs. If not, at the very least you will be able to pickup a current generation machine at a discounted price.
