Having own both the black and white Macbooks around that time, the extra $50 (over the white version with the same drive space) was worth it for a wrist rest that didn't look like it stained as fast as the top case on the white MacBook.

OTOH, I had the original white MacBook and ended up getting the topcase changed for free like 3 or 4 times though the first few years I had that machine (while the AppleCare was in effect). It was annoying that it was necessary, but pretty spiffy to periodically get a brand new keyboard and trackpad.
