...and it rocks so far :D
The keyboard is a little weird to get used to, the keys don't move quite like they used to. The trackpad is *huge*, but with the two-finger gestures (Two fingers + click = right click, two fingers + drag = scroll) it's well worth it.
Took pics as I opened it up. The Mag-safe power adapter *rocks*. Magnets kick ass.

yeah, there's magnets everywhere on this thing.... two for the display, and the power connector rocks. More connectors should be like this.

they're literally magnets that keeps the power cord attached to laptop and screen latched to base.

I wish the mouse button was more like the "mighty mouse" that they have. In other words I wish the damn button was sensitive and pushing the right half of the button right clicked.
Although, the pressure on the track pad is so awesome, makes scrolling down these forums a breeze!
The black one is a regular macbook right? (I just got a Pro a few weeks ago)

Black one's the top-of-the-line l33t Macbook. Next step up from this one is the MBP.
The price difference between the MB and the MBP was a bit much for the features it offered. I do prefer the option of the non-glossy screen and the nicer keyboard on the MBP.

Sorry, forgot to mention, by "I got" I meant...my company gave me one :)
I agree, the price difference is artificially large, but I didn't foot the bill hehe
