Apple Adds Last Plastic MacBook to List of Vintage and Obsolete Products

Apple has officially added a new of its old Mac laptops into its list of vintage and obsolete products, which means that the company won’t fix them anymore if they break.

One of the items on the list was the last plastic MacBook, which was released in late 2009. The MacBook, offered in both white and black plastic, was discontinued in min-2011 after the introduction of the MacBook Air.
