Why the Black MacBook Cost More
I had a black macbook in 2007 which I sprung the extra $200 for because I didn&#x27;t want to be one of &quot;those people&quot; with a gloss white macbook and the extra $500 for a macbook pro was just too much. It was my daily driver and I got a lot of mileage out of it until 2015 (with some upgrades along the way) or so when I replaced it with a chromebook.  I was really hoping this article would have something insightful but it literally just says:<p>&quot;Was this modest storage upgrade worth the $200 premium? Absolutely not; Apple was charging more for the black enclosure because it could.&quot;
