Macbook casing black vs white

Hello everyone and thanks for any advice in advance.
I'm considering getting a Macbook and wanted to know what anyone thought on the quality of the casing on the current model, I know there has beeen some issues in the past with cracking etc.
Are either of the cases, black or white, more durable?

Hi,
Mine is black as Mort had, and still in mint condition, and my co-worker white macbook (original) also free from discoloration issue.
Just try to use it in clean environment, and never touch the screen and put any drink or other liquid near by, and wipe accordingly using damp soft fabric (micro fiber streak free) to get rid of smudge and dust.
Good Luck.

  • There's a black and white striped glitch on the left side of my screen on my Macbook Air! Its happened before and has been an easy fix, usually just restart or turn off my computer but don't know what else to do. Is there anything I can try now?

  • HT5517 i have apple tv and i could play my dvd on my macbook pro but now i cannot i get a black and white box i have vlc which apple store put on for me but thats no good because the film keeps jumping. i am wondering why i cannot play from dvd to apple t

    i have had apple tv since last april and i could play films from dvd player from mac book  but for some reason this has stopped working from dvd player when i put the dvd player on apple tv i get a black and white screen i can hear the film but i cannot see it, i went to my local store and they but vlc on for me but its terrible the film always jumps every time.
    Can anyone now the reason this has happen as i watch film offern but its driving me crazy why i cannot play from macbook pro to dvd player. i have been told it was a sercuity problem with the films so do i use itunes every time i need to watch a film if so then apple tv is a waste of money thanks please help

    This is supposed to happen, licensing issue mean that Apple can't AirPlay protected content to other devices. You might try VLC instead of Apples built in DVD player.

  • Love Safari's new look, but on my 17-inch MacBook Pro the font on most pages is partly or all in an insipid light blue. I've tried changing all text to black on white to help my 83-year-old eyes, but no luck so far. Any tips?

    This is my first time using this site, but it's helpful so far. Not sure if I need to retype the wording in the Discussion box above, but will do so just in case.

    The simplest thing to try is a reset.
    With Safari running, click on Safari in the menu bar and select Reset Safari ....
    If that does not work, go to Safari / Preferences / Advanced.

  • When starting the macbook pro, the screen was flashing black and white, then to color to color, any suggestion to fixing this problem?

    When i am starting the macbook pro, the screen was flashing black and white, and then to color to color, and the whole process repeat all over again, is there any suggestion in solving this, or is there no way to solve this and i need to bring it to the apple support?

    Sounds as if you're having a problem with your GPU (graphics card). Only Apple can diagnose and fix this, so the best thing would be to take your machine into your local Apple Store or an AASP.

  • Macbook display shows black and white lines when fullscreen

    If i leave my Macbook on for a while without shutting down and then I view a photo or movie (in player or safari) fullscreen the screen shows just black and white lines. Sort of like bad tv reception. It has happened a few times and a reboot has fixed it but it comes back. Any ideas anyone?
    Thanks

    I have a similar problem. Not sure you're on here (since the post is really old) but did you manage to work it out? How?

    My Imac froze earlier today as I was dragging an image from safari into indesig and when it froze the weirdest pattern overlaid the screen. It looked just like the opacity pattern from photoshop with grey and white squares. I turned the computer off using the power button and unplugged everything.
    Now when I try to start it these weird lines appear on my start up screen (see link)...
    http://meijerladdaruppgrejer.wordpress.com/2012/07/24/oops/
    as you can see the apple and the wheel appears as normal...
    ... then it moves to a normal looking white screen (perhaps a bit greener than usual) and around 30 seconds later freezes at the blue screen.
    I've tried the cmd + alt + p + r several times but it won't help.
    If i press alt during start up I can see and choose my hard drive but just end up at the blue screen again.
    Can I try starting it up in safe mode or something?

  • Macbook monitor is a shaking black and white screen

    My macbook monitor screen keeps going to a black and white shaking screen and the only way to get it to stop is power off and back on. Soon after I power it back on, the screen goes back to the black and white shaking screen. Any idea?

    Unfortunately protected content is blocked from Airplay using Apple's DVD Player (same for playing back DRM protected video in iTunes or Quicktime, but you are better off using Home Sharing for that).
    For this reason the OS does not allow the Airplay algorithm to grab the screen displaying 'protected video' - annoyingly even unportected home made DVDs will exhibit this.
    Try using something like VLC Player instead.
    This was such an obvious use for Airplay but the movie studios probably insisted.

  • Shared MacBook is shown as White, not Black.

    My Mother's and my Girlfriend's MacBooks (Both Black) see themselves (in Devices section of Finder Sidebar) as White, and my MacBook Pro sees them as White too.
    I wouldn't ask this if it were not for there being a Black MacBook icon residing in /System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources/com.apple.macb ook-black.icns
    I'm wondering if perhaps this is just at the level of being an "Easter Egg" and there actually isn't a way for a BlackBook to work out (and tell other Macs) whether it should be seen as Black or Not Black, whether by serial number or what (I know that "MacBook2,1" isn't helpful as both models identify themselves as that)?

    What versions of OS X are the black macbooks running? The icon is determined by the info that the macbook telling your machine what type of icon to display. Make sure the macbooks are updated to 10.5.2 and see if the problem persists. Good luck...

    Keep the temperature down, usually by boosting the lowest default fan speed to help.
    Also FBDIMMs on Amazon I have run at 59*C versus the 72*C+ of prior modules so adding less heat into the system.
    There are kits you can modify the card's fan and add copper heat sink pipes. You may be fine and not have to buy a new card and continue with the 8800GT.
    The X1900 was a huge problem with dust and therefore with heat and making the fans work harder - but never able to cool the interior, so the card had to be removed and dust inside the card's chamber 3-4X per year.
    My Mac Pro 1,1 even without the X1900 would warm up the area during winter after 3-4 hours of use - the exhaust on these is very hot. So monitor the temps and fans and I would  install SmcFanControl - I have always had it since 2007 to keep the fans default at 800-900 rpm along with Hardware Monitor (or use another) to monitor all the system sensors.
