Could you detail which parts of Late 2008 Aluminum 13-inch MacBook database you may need?


There are some useful items (88 page PDF user guide/manual) ~ linked within other older articles.


{..MacBook User Guide - MacBook_13inch_Aluminum_Late2008..} Others, maybe service ones exist.

Sometimes other deeper constructs had been saved and accessible, through other areas online.


Generally sites such as powerbookmedic, fixit, and others may have link to an archival source.

References to now missing 'Specification' pages -as found & linked here- may have been sited.


Good luck & happy trails!🌤🎣

Curious if you located all missing specifications blue color text links, inside replies here.


An archived Support page, in one of my replies, this is original Technical Spec page for 13-inch

Aluminum Late 2008 model. Two versions of different specs, both in there. ~A later RAM update

could be applied; as quality aftermarket reputable replacements, arrived after publication dates.


While I was able to locate a good link to an original service manual.. (since you never indicated

a need) ..that was not offered here. Was there a specific reason for this question being asked?


The model has a niche as one built between official 13-inch MacBook, and later MacBook Pro.

And that could be reason for 'prime examples' to be considered collectable, if high OEM quality.


Good luck & happy computing!🌞⛵️

Was there a specific reason to know about specifications,

since there are several ways to utilize online databases..?


A few links are contained in earlier reply, URL + blue txt.


Mactracker.ca app is good. Helps if you already know to

use their content, in conjunction with other detailed fact.


Some other with online 'lookup services' help more than

just 'serial number' detail; build, model yr, sales order, etc.

Everymac has tons; other lesser knowns are fair too.


..PowerBook Medic Detailed Specs & Part List by Apple SN..

Specs and Parts are separate categories; for most older Macs &

some newer ones. Specs can be revealing, parts not so much.


As a rule, do not post your specific product (SN) identifiers here.

Better if you can use them to your own advantage; along with

other information resources, offline and on.


Take care & safe travels!🐌|🐢
