Is the New Apple Macbook Worth It?

If you're like me you find yourself wandering aimlessly through retail electronics stores like Best Buy, trying to find the best deal on even the smallest thing. Truth is I usually end up leaving in frustration and continuing the search for several more hours on the internet.
So is Apple's latest MacBook a good buy for people in the market for a new notebook?
According to an online video ad, Apple has redesigned their signature notebook to be housed in a single piece of aluminum, called the "unibody". The MacBook also boasts an LED backlit screen, a toxin-free manufacturing process (no arsenic, mercury, BFRs, PVCs, and smaller packaging), a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, and a 13.3 inch screen.
Most knowledgeable consumers know that the best deal isn't always the one with the smallest price tag. If you buy a shotty nameless piece of merchandise, there's a good chance that it will have less features, break down much quicker, and most likely not be backed by a decent warranty. That's more money spent, and proof that a wise consumer needs to find the middle road between sticker price and value.
Notebooks are no exception. People want to find low prices while adhering to a certain standard of performance and reliability. So is the new MacBook worth it?
Putting all green-friendly labels and shiny bells and whistles aside, the new Apple MacBook is a solid notebook with some impressive specs- atleast for the price. With a starting price of $1299, thrifty shoppers looking for a complete bundle of style, performance, and price in their next notebook may have found just what they're looking for.
Here's a promo video about making the MacBook, recorded by SlashGear from the Apple's October 14th unveiling.
