Jetway EM130 looks like a MacBook, works like a netbook

You'd be forgiven for mistaking the Jetway EM130 for a MacBook. Cosmetically, it looks an awful lot like a 13 inch MacBook. But on the inside, this 13.3 inch notebook is all netbook — albeit one with relatively powerful netbook components.

The Jetway EM130 has a 1366 x 768 pixel HD display, NVIDIA ION graphics, and a dual core Intel Atom 330 processor. That chip is typically reserved for desktop computers, but Jetway's MacBook clone isn't the first laptop to use it. The Asus Eee PC 1201N also uses a dual core Intel Atom 330 processor.

The Em130 also has a 250G hard drive, up to 2GB of RAM, 802.11b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth, and Ethernet. There's also a fingerprint reader and an optional 3G modem.

There's no word on price or availability — although it's reasonably safe to assume this notebook won't be available in the US anytime soon. While we tend to see a lot of Apple products cloned in China, it's pretty rare to see those devices make it to the States.
